Reading OpenOffice.org with Gnopernicus

Hello,

I've successully managed[1] to have Breezy speak Italian and now I'm
looking a bit at the applications.  Gedit and Firefox seem to mostly
work.  Abiword works except the main editing area (kind of useless, but
I didn't investigate more).  OpenOffice.org didn't work at all, not even
the menus.

I googled a bit and found that one needs to do things like install a
Java to ATK bridge, a Sun JDK and recompile OpenOffice.org.

This all looks very scary to start experimenting with (and a recompile
of OOo would probably take days on my hardware).

Has anyone tried this path and had success?  Can it be done with the
OOo already in Breezy (or Dapper)?


Ciao,

Enrico
