LibreOffice is not a small port, I managed to make 3.5.x work  until the
boost upgrade indirectly broke it. LibreOffice is quite complicated to work=
 on
and I am only working on it to maintain it alive. Other projects like pkgng=
 and some
huge changes on the port infrastructure are taking all my free time right n=
ow.

Remember this is a volunteer work, I already sent request for people to be
help on LibreOffice. I got some help from time to time, but noone really co=
me to take the
hard work on LibreOffice, so yes my replies are still the same I'm just try=
ing to
keep it alive I missed 3.5.3 and now we are at 3.5.4 and I don't know when =
I'll
start to work.

The work on it is not that complicated but it requires a huge amount of time
which I currently don't have, and upstream is really nice to help porting.

Sorry,
Bapt
