Maybe the entry point for developers is important too. In Firefox, you first try and develop an extension, which is very simple. Then you might go out and dive into the app-code, which should be easier because you know of xul (the gui-language) and other inner workings before you even enter the real stuff. It's so easy to get into. Further more, javascript is the glue, css defines the looks. The barrier is much lower in that way. Maybe Oo.o should try to be less monolithic or something. Maybe even use Xul for 3.0, it's great (especially when Xul gets to version 2.0). Why invent the wheel again and again?
