fc2: openoffice.org-1.1.3-11.4.0.fc2 packages were downloaded into a 
temporary directory, checked with rpm -K openoffice*, and installed 
without any exceptions or difficulty.

In turn, openoffice.org calc, draw, impress, and writer were opened and 
used without encountering any exceptions.  Project management and Math 
were opened and closed, but not used.

Tests performed included the following.

WRITER:
1. A new document was created and saved in native oo.o format.  Writer 
was closed, reopened and the newly created writer document was opened 
and closed without exception or error.
2.  A pre-existing native oo.o format document containing both text and 
tables imported from oo.o calc was loaded, edited slightly and saved 
without error.
3.  A pre-existing .doc file was opened and saved in native oo.o format, 
as .pdf, as .rtf, and as .html.  All created documents were subsequently 
opened with oo.o.  The .rtf document was also opened with abiword, the 
.html document was opened with Konqueror, and the .pdf document was 
opened with PDF Viewer.

CALC:
1. A pre-existing .xls spreadsheet document of greater size than oo.o 
can process was opened.  oo.o continued running, advising the user that 
rows in excess of oo.o capacity were not imported.  (Unexpected outcome: 
Loading of this spreadsheet file seemed a bit faster than I remembered 
from earlier versions of oo.o.)

2.  A new spreadsheet was created using test data and four of the more 
simple built-in statistical functions.  No errors or exceptions encountered.
3.  Several existing .xls files containing table lookups, mutiple 
coloring of text, statistical functions, relatively sophisticated 
formating were successfully opened without observing any indications 
that formating had changed or that functions used were not accurately 
supported.

DRAW, IMPRESS:
1.  Simple new documents were created and saved.  Oo.o was closed, 
reopened and the newly created documents were reopened without error.
