As have I since early Dapper and currently Feisty; I also maintain a
separate Feisty with the Ubuntu version (2.2 non rc3 now thanks to
Matthias Klose & his team) for comparison/debug assist etc.
However (and yes I do understand Dapper is LTS and is supposed to be the
most stable version etc.,) I do think that keeping Dapper frozen at 2.02
http://packages.ubuntu.com/dapper/editors/openoffice.org
is a bit odd. OOo 2.0.2 has come and gone, and subsequent versions of
OOo have addressed some rather significant security and application changes.
