I don't have room for 2.0 to test this, but...
To prevent the initial registration dialog window, with 1.1.4, I had to
edit
OpenOffice.org1.1.4/share/registry/schema/org/openoffice/Office/Common.xcs
<prop oor:name="RequestDialog" oor:type="xs:int">
<value>1</value>
</prop>
<prop oor:name="ShowMenuItem" oor:type="xs:boolean">
<value>true</value>
</prop>
To:
<prop oor:name="RequestDialog" oor:type="xs:int">
<value>0</value>
</prop>
<prop oor:name="ShowMenuItem" oor:type="xs:boolean">
<value>false</value>
</prop>
