I think this is a Fedora Extras candidate.  Entire packages that are
only a few KiBs are being pushed out to Extras, so I don't think we want
to add anything that isn't needed to the core OO package.

Now you just need to find a maintainer.  You could even volunteer to do
it yourself on the fedora-extras list.
