[program-l] IBM Lotus Symphony Far Better Than Open/Libre Office

Hi List.
Have not done a lot of work with it, but it appears that IBM Lotus
Symhony (free office suite comparable with Open/Libre Office) works far
better with NVDA on Win7 than the other two free options.
I understand that Lotus Symphony use a different interface technology
which is more accessible than the interface technology the other two
office suites use. I've read somewhere that it also does not require the
JAB to be installed.
I'm trying Lotus Symphony because I could not get any one of the other
two guys working smoothly with NVDA. Access via the JAB was very fragile
- it would stop working very easily, requiring that I kill the two
soffice processes before it would work again, and many times, while
arrowing down through documents speech would stop and I had to wait and
arrow up before arrowing down and hoping that speech would start again.
I would love to support Libre Office but it just does not work nicely
with NVDA. The problem is most likely with the JAB.
This is not a programming post / question but it relates to the JAB
which is relevant here. Anyone has more thoughts or suggestions about this?
Regards
