Good François.. In this case I'll write a Google Desktop plugin for
searching CC licensed content, or does anyone have another suggestion? Thank
you all for answering me.

Hello,

I have started working with Laurent Godard, an OpenOffice developer, on
the Creative Commons add-on for Open Office; there is a (yet empty) wiki
page in Open Office extensions wiki
(
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Extensions_repository/Creative_Commons
)
and a cvs repository. I have not had much time yet to make progress on
the implementation, but I am willing to do it and will have more time in
the next weeks to work on it. I do agree that adding CC support to OO.o
is very important.

I think that there are some issues related to copyright if we want that
the CC add-on is integrated in OO.o (which would be the best solution).
Sun requires that people using the open office cvs sign a joined
copyright agreement, which I did. The licence of the add-on is LGPL of
course.

Of course, the GSoC will help, and I don't think that the job will be
finished by this summer. If I can be of any help in shaping the
application, please let me know.

I'll fill the wiki page asap and make an announce on cc-devel.

Best,

François
