Yes, obviously, if the PMs refuse to package it, then I'll be
downloading the static portable builds form somewhere.
I am not sure whether the PMs actively refuse to package OpenOffice. As
far as I can see, the former Debian Maintainer of OpenOffice just
switched to LibreOffice.
If someone steps up to package OpenOffice again, I don't see no reason
that it cannot be in Debian, but I think most people see no point in
having two very similar office suites in the Debian repository and see
therefore also no point in making packages again...
