I was about to commit the AOO code to a PPA for myself, but as Drew mentioned, it might be a lot more fun if we started a little team to set up a repo for Ubuntu for the new RC. Would you like to play? I am good at thrashing things out (even reading the fine manual at times) but I have never set up a PPA before. I have come as far as making a "test PPA" but I haven't added any files. Apparently Launchpad makes its own debs, so that is not necessary.
