I'm not sure I follow. How would you bolt Libre Office on to Diaspora?

Really?  I thought there were general-access diaspora servers by
invitation (although not open access - I assumed they're scared of
exceeding their budget), the project is funded by donation and
the servers will be funded by the same range of diverse ways that
(say) wordpress servers are funded.

Have I misunderstood that?
