Hi, MySQL Connector/OOo [1], the database driver for OpenOffice.org for connecting to a MySQL server without JDBC/ODBC, is going to be integrated into the main trunk. (It previously had been released from a CWS only.)
This happens in CWS mysqlconnector, probably going to "ready for QA" in the next few days. The driver compiles on the usual Sun-provided platforms, if you need/have patches for making the CWS compile on your favorite platform, you're welcome to contribute them to the CWS. If you maintain an OpenOffice.org flavor for a Linux distribution, you might be interested in knowing that configure learned the switches "--enable-mysql-connector", "--with-system-mysql", "--with-system-mysqlcppconn", "--with-libmysql-path", to customize building the connector and its pre-requisites to your needs.
