I was shocked, shocked I tell you, to learn that Ubuntu Lucid (10.04) 
will drop OOp from the UNR version of the OS.  Here are the details: 
<http://digitizor.com/2010/02/05/openoffice-dropped-from-ubuntu-netbook-
edition-10-04/>.  I use the crap out of OOo on my System76 Starling 
netbook.  One can only hope that you'll still be able to install OOo 
through Synaptic.  I think a lot of UNR users may be turned off by the 
idea of downloading directly from the OOo homepage -- we're sort of 
attached to Synaptic.  Make it too hard to get the software, and people 
will just stop using it.  

I see this as a "bad thing" for OOo.
