Does anyone know if SUSE plans to release a version of OpenOffice with

Here is some history from an OpenOffice list discussion.

Cheers,

Since wav files and other media play fine using OpenOffice under XP I think it
would be most critical to get this functionality working under Linux.  This is
an important issue for those that wish to switch to Linux from
Microsoft products.

i know that Debian and Fedora has a working copy of OO 2.2.x with GStreamer.
so maybe you should check what they have done and add it here (main OO tree) or
ask them to push it upstream ?

it solved allot of multimedia issues and it works beautifully :-)

Here is some more interesting information.

nadavkav: SUSE, Debian, Fedora etc. all use ooo-build, which includes my code.
It just wasn't upstreamed yet. BTW, it was developed by Novell Inc. ;-)

Since Novell instrumented the code to fix this my question is how do I
get a copy
of OpenOffice from SUSE that allows me to hear/play multimedia stuff
included in powerpoint presentations?    Will this be included in 10.3
?
