Rename Coffice?

[Sebastian Sauer]

One more thing which may solve that: per logic I am maintainer, means 
dictator, of Coffice. Hereby I replace that (means give up my 
maintainer-ship while installing as last act) following concept for Coffice:
http://community.apache.org/committers/decisionMaking.html

That means: No single dictator but consensus building.

Ok/Better?
