What is "the Open Office CD"? Btw, note that the product's name is
OpenOffice.org.

Going to http://distribution.openoffice.org/cdrom/index.html#cdrom I see
over 300 CD distributors listed. Which one are you talking about? You'll
have to talk to them directly. Citing from that page:

Well, the components of the OOo suite have one thing in common: they all
support the infrastructure and API and file format of the suite. I don't
see where CSpace would fit into that. Bundling it with some CD is
a different thing.

Don't get me wrong. I like the idea of decentralized not client-server
based messaging, but to have it _integrated_ with OOo a lot more is
needed than just a stand-alone application. You could see whether
creating an OOo extension from CSpace would give some benefit though,
see http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Extensions

Maybe you also should have pointed out more explicitly that CSpace is
not an Instant Messenger but a P2P connection platform instead, with IM
just being one application built on it.

Btw, what protocol(s) does CSpace use? I didn't find any reference to
RFCs or the like. Just that it uses Kademlia and DHT for
decentralization and TLS for the secure channel.
