The Document Foundation expelled over 30 LibreOffice core developers from membership this week—including seven of the project’s top 10 all-time committers. The ejected developers, all employed by Collabora Productivity, contribute approximately 80% of LibreOffice’s codebase. TDF cited vague “legal disputes” and conflict-of-interest bylaws but provided no specifics. Collabora responded by announcing plans to fork the project.
