I don't know anything about Go-OOo but they have merged with them:

Q: What does this announcement mean to other derivatives of OpenOffice.org?

A: We want The Document Foundation to be open to code contributions
from as many people as possible. We are delighted to announce that the
enhancements produced by the Go-OOo team will be merged into
LibreOffice, effective immediately. We hope that others will follow
suit.
