A better question might be "Since Sun now recommends people to the
openoffice package, would it be good to get the OO package updated so that
it uses the 1.0 source instead of the old one?"
I've tried to start down this path a couple of times; I just don't have
the time to stick to the number of changes required to get the thing
going.
