Hello,

I see it still isn't there on the download pages of OpenOffice.org. Maybe
they haven't found enough people to do the QA-testing on the English PPC
version. Volunteers are always welcome!

You have a choice of downloads from the good-day site:
http://ooopackages.good-day.net/pub/OpenOffice.org/MacOSX/
• either the 3.0.0 RC4 which is equal to the final release (in the other OS
versions)
• either the 3.0.1 RC1 which I am using without major problems on a old
PowerBook PPC Tiger
if you're more adventurous, you can go for a development build
• 310 m6 probably is nearly the 3.1.0 release candidate 1
• 300 m43 is on the way for later versions I suppose (3.x)

You'll find the PPC files further down each list (click on the version you
choose)
the US_english version has no localisation/language in its name (don't take
the SDK!)

For full documentation (aside the F1 Help), go to
http://documentation.openoffice.org
Good luck!
