Hmmm, in that case the question "what is gnome office" remains
unanswered?
(I am not sure). I have no objection to having Open Office stuff on the
Gnome Office
pages, but it seems confusing to people who want to find out what Gnome
Office
really is. But then again, I might be wrong.

Again, it seems confusing to have things on the gnome office pages that
aren't really part of it. (at least, that's what I think)

Hmmm, well, as you point it with GnuCash this isn't the same as wanting
to be part of Gnome Office I think. (We were reffering to sodipodi,
evolution, etc..)
