I've found that, when running Ubuntu, the best way to keep current with
OpenOffice.org is to remove Ubuntu's openoffice.org packages and use the
official packages (use alien to convert the RPMs to debs) from
openoffice.org.

2.0.3 works perfectly (as far as I can tell) with Breezy - it'd probably
work for Dapper, too.
