Package OpenOffice.org 3.x for Backports

Bug description:
There was not enough time to officially include OpenOffice.org 3.0 in
the Intrepid Ibex release of Ubuntu. OO 2.4 will be the default
office package. We understand that testing out new software is
exciting, and apologize for any disappointment. One common issue
raised is Office 2007 document support, although contrary to somewhat
popular belief, Ubuntu's version of OO 2.4 supports these new formats
just fine.
OO 3.0 will be default in the next 6 month release of Ubuntu. If you
would like to upgrade to OO 3.0 anyway in Intrepid, you have a couple
options:
You can install from this PPA: https://launchpad.net/~openoffice-
pkgs/+archive
Or, you can wait for the 3.0.1 bug fix release of OpenOffice, which
will be included in the Backports repository for Intrepid. This
release is expected sometime mid January.
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/OOoRelease301 has more up to
date information about the expected release date.
Bear in mind, that if you choose to upgrade, there is no supported
method of downgrading, so please decide carefully.
Thanks!
