Why doesn't FC use the latest OpenOffice?

I was wondering why FC is always trailing one version behind the latest OpenOffice. FC hat OO.org 1.1.1 while 1.1.2 was available at release time. FC 3 has OO.org 1.1.2, even though 1.1.3 was released a while ago.
Is there a specific reason for this?
Also I noticed that the /update directory doesn't carry OO.org 1.1.3

The Fedora OpenOffice.org is a customized one, with Bluecurvish icons and different menus. I'm assuming it is still being worked on and tested.

More like an educated guess. The Fedora community is still working on communication.

Be assured that you will find the OpenOffice.org version in the release notes and update notifications. It is a very visible package.
