Packages for the OpenOffice.org 2.0.4 release candidate 1 are available 
for testing; besides many bug fixes and addtional translations you'll find

- support for audio and video files in presentations

- native packages for the amd64 platform, improving the support for
   various input methods and database adaptors.

The packages are available for testing by adding the following resource 
lines to your /etc/apt/sources.list file:

   deb http://people.ubuntu.com/~doko/ubuntu/ edgy/$(ARCH)/
   deb http://people.ubuntu.com/~doko/ubuntu/ edgy/all/

Notes for testing the amd64 build: The build can be found in the 
packages ending with the -experimental suffix. To install the packages, 
remove the existing openoffice.org-core package (and all depending 
packages), then install the openoffice.org-experimental package (and 
depending on your desktop either openoffice.org-gnome-experimental or 
openoffice-org-kde-experimental). A known issue with the native -amd64 
build is non-working help, which is fixed for the next set of packages.

Please submit bug reports to malone, referencing the exact version and 
platform you did use for testing.

Thanks, Matthias
