titans are moving the whole contest to a different level.
Online services seem to be reaching further than I for one have been

There have been inquiries on the users' list and in the forum about
online office services.
Perhaps plans are already being hatched? If not, why not?
This has been constantly talked about while is true that weba applications
are a buzz word. The OpenOffice.org community development is based on
mantaining and extending the UNO framework.
This framework will be arguably dificult to move to a HTML toolkit. Most
OOo people focus on having compatibility with this suites thanks to the
adoption of OpenDocuments.
A gap in between is webservices and how can OOo can operate as desktop
client for this new web applications.
