Would an option be to just retire abiword? Its slowly gotten less

it is there much motivation to keep it alive? (I'm not entirely
familiar with its user base so my suggestion might be heavily greated
with "OMG NOES!" replies and if that's the case then by all means
keep the train moving forward ... I just hate to unnessecary work

If no one steps up to maintain it sure. Upstream is still very much
alive as far as I can see. It's just the Fedora package thats lagging.
Also, I think with the new compression on the Live images all the
spins have the spare space for LibreOffice.
They might.
