Out of all the free and open source licences which are available, there are two which are disproportionately chosen by FOSS developers when licensing their software. Those two are the GPL and the LGPL. Of these, the GPL is disproportionately favoured over the LGPL.* If there are issues with GPL implementations then there are IP issues with OOXML.

http://blogs.ittoolbox.com –
I have said it myself and for me in my particular cases it is true. Linux "Just Works"... Yet for many out there it doesn't "Just Work".
