'does not really help in practice to attract new developers. '

I dont agree really.

Besides the problem is really that openoffice is an artificial effort right now, marketed by Sun.

Koffice is MUCH more close to the community.

The only problem is that I cant code in C++ (and I wont. I use ruby for all my work). :)

The best solution would be to be as generic as possible and allow people to write plugins etc.. in the language they use. I really have no need for java, c++ or whatever anymore, and I dont want to waste time just for coding in C++ (because I know, I wouldnt code in C++ anyway.).

Well actually with the Kross binding, you can write features in Ruby, Python and JavaScript, either scripts or even dockers. I don't know what you are intersted in doing, but you can do stuff in ruby, and we would really love to have some inputs on the bindings.
