I wasn't aware of this project, after some researching it looks amazing!

I really hope somebody packages this for Fedora.

Go-OO is a fork of Openoffice.org. It has been discussed before

What I meant was (blame tiredness),
can it work in Fedora, as is without messing around.

I have no idea. Feel free to try. Meanwhile, if something is missing in
Fedora Openoffice.org, do file a RFE about it.

I would love to see OpenGL transitions finally in OpenOffice. There
are patches but aren't included in OpenOffice but are included in
Go-OO. Is there a chance we see these patches in Fedora version of
OpenOffice?

Cheers!

No idea. It is entirely up to the maintainer(s) of Openoffice.org in
Fedora. While we generally do have a policy of stick to upstream
sources, there has been several exceptions for various reasons and if
there is a valid need, file a RFE for the maintainers to consider that.

Caolán upstreamed that, see 
http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=96946

This will be available in OOo 3.2, by end of Nov. 
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/OOoRelease32

You can test them on a dev. snapshot
