Afaik not.

First thanks for your participation but currently there is no need to
test the movability of OOo out of /opt to /Applications.

No need for this too. Pavel Janiks patch soon wil be in the main
source code tree. We then will have /Applications as default location
for OOo under Mac OS X.

In addition we also have a shell script that creates metapackages
instead of singel packages.

The source code is owned by Kevin B. Hendricks. But we don't want to
use this script any longer because it contains gpl Software and so
we aren't allowed to provide it with the main OOo package.

We have the authors permission to use the gpl parts for OOo as
LGPL/SISL but here some informations are still necessary.

Terry Teague the author of Start OpenOffice.org wants, if I
understand him right, to make his script work with 2.0.

Florian Heckl also reprogrammed the Begin_OOo script so that we have
the same functionality but this time under LGPL/SISL licence.

And a few days ago someone other too provided a launcher for the
comming OOo 2.0 for Mac OS X.

Yes. There are Icons available but they have poor quality. Christian
Zwahlen asked a few days ago, who provided them. So far he got no
answer. He asked because we need higher resolutions and they need to
be a bit more beautiful.

Feel free to contact Christian via this list and work together with
him on creating new Icons.
