Could this work for the average user?
Does this not seem a convenience for the end-user community at large?

Others could mirror this repository, but this would be the "upstream
source" for both users/distributions.
Are there other factors I'm missing?
AFAIK, go-oo people maintained a yum repository. So it is possible.

From a marketing point of view, this would be in LibO's interest as
the update to LibO would then be a no brainer even from the user point
of view. Almost a form of "pushing" the LibO updates/upgrades through
without having to go through distro packaging.

In this case, then, it would be a case of having a dedicated
dev-packager for each flavour of packaging system used by the distros.

Marc,
That sums it up rather nicely. ;)

I had not heard of Go-OO ( http://go-oo.org ) before until this
discussion thread.
Visiting their page, it seems like they have the kind of distribution
model that we could leverage.

Are you talking of the "Universal Linux" on this page? http://go-oo.org/download/

If so, how would a user be able to add this easily as a repo if he were using a system such as Mageia (Mandriva) as I am using? (Just as an example.)
