I'm still optimistic that Sun will get their head out of their ass on this,
because otherwise they just cannot be a GNOME Office by any standard.  Right
now it's a stupid duplication of code.  It will take Sun more resources and
time to go ahead with their plan right now, while alienating just about
everyone who was ever at all willing to help on OO from the GNOME camp, but
hey, it's their code, they can do as they please.
