Just to expand on Deepankar,

Adagio is a daemon that can eaisly be set up on your server, and
configured via a web interface. It is basically a p2p program with no
download capabilities, and configuration would be a simple matter of
changing the "shared files" directory to the one that currently holds
your OOo files. Adagio runs on Windows, Linux, and most other *nix
platforms.

Some advantages of this are that with new releases of OOo, there will
automatically be plenty of hosts on the p2p network with the new
files, and I am also looking at creating an automatic OpenOffice.org
P2P installer which would be able to leverage off the functionality of
the gnutella2 network.
