I finally got a response from the Sun engineer (in Germany) who's overseeing the FreeBSD native port. He says he's only got two part-timers working on it, so it's going slow. I'd say that anyone with experience at porting code would probably best volunteer to help out there. We won't need a FreeBSD entry in the ports collection if the OpenOffice guys make a native one part of their suite. -crl -- Chad R.
