I was shocked, shocked I tell you, to learn that Ubuntu Lucid (10.04)
will drop OOp from the UNR version of the OS. Here are the details:
<http://digitizor.com/2010/02/05/openoffice-dropped-from-ubuntu-netbook-
edition-10-04/>. I use the crap out of OOo on my System76 Starling
netbook. One can only hope that you'll still be able to install OOo
through Synaptic. I think a lot of UNR users may be turned off by the
idea of downloading directly from the OOo homepage -- we're sort of
attached to Synaptic. Make it too hard to get the software, and people
will just stop using it.

I see this as a "bad thing" for OOo.
