To make this thing happen, one needs to focus on the task. Faffing about with several architectures and plenty of people testing is just not the right approach. The drag from supporting different architectures is not primarilly related to the compilation or testing time as you suggested. It's just a mess to maintain the build system and all dependencies for two different architectures when it comes to a monster like Libre Office. Seriously, 1-2 weeks of dedicated work by one guy to make the thing actually run wihout any native GUI on one single machine is what is needed initially.
Meaning: "Cooperation" would only mess things up. This coming from a core MorphOS developer, meaning great knowledge and experience of the platform, who has actually spent some time investigating the application we are discussing. That actually makes me trust his view on the issue.
MorphOS is Amiga
done right! 
MorphOS NG will be AROS
done right!
