I will not support or use LibreOffice
  until it stops helping spread OOXML by enabling writing in this file format. There is 
absolutely no need to write in this proprietary format. To do so is contrary to the principle 
of using ODF and open source formats.

See the following:

Unless this changes I will strongly advocate in the support groups I participate the people 
stay with OpenOffice.org and not switch to LibreOffice.
