The article doesn't really frame the problem apache is causing... I think it's really just that someone might install OpenOffice thinking that it's LibreOffice.
It's definitely a dick move by Apache but... the reality is that they're entitled to cling to the OpenOffice trademark if they wish, and it's really LibreOffice's branding problem.
Also the article doesn't mention the 14 bug fix releases since 4.1, which seems kinda disingenuous.
