Well, shouldn't the "committee" be allocating resources to the Libre
Office team, and other FOSS teams?  "Lloyd" has determined that the
community's voluntary contributions are "pathetic".  

We can't just let the free market work, when committees (and
"geniuses" like "Lloyd") know best, and can decide which products are
worthy and what level of financial support is "correct". 

The bickering begins now!

Sheesh, what an ignorant, arrogant jackass, "Lloyd" is.
