Actually, I've had this to say before Rui brought it up.  I was talking  
to someone about a very strong feeling that OpenOffice.org is being  
pushed by several distribution maintainers.  I emphasise the "push."  I  
have found little useful about OpenOffice.org compared to its size and  
resource requirments.  It doesn't even feel as intuitive as AbiWord.   
For that matter, all of GNOME Office is far more intuitive in the  
standard functions, sans AbiShow/Criawips.  In reality, I would rather  
use KPresenter than the StarOffice/OpenOffice.org equivelant (which I  
don't even know, but I do know its an odd, quirky li'l name).
I think GNOME Office needs to make more noise and get more face time  
within the next year, or I might not have anything about the users to  
add to the AWN when GOffice goes 1.2/2.0.  Maybe a /. interview could  
be arranged or something?
