<<EOQ
The odf-converter only integrates into Novell and Ubuntu editions of
OpenOffice.org. The odf-converter may work with the Go-Oo edition, but
I am not sure. It does not work with the upstream version (the version
from the
OpenOffice.org web site that most people use) or with the
Fedora version, so don't even try.
EOQ
we had a long talk about go-oo vs. upstream
I took the side of reconsidering go-oo, and this could be another
point into that side
