Thank you for the news Fred. :-)
It is an initiative to protect all previous and future development from the way Oracle is dealing with stuff since the Sun Microsystems acquisition. This is a 100% libre version. (This sentence might be redundant but since sometimes non libre initiatives say they are, then it is imperative to clarify that this one is really libre.)
IRichard Stallman among many others supports this initiative http://www.documentfoundation.org/supporters/
