Well, it's here in a way. No X11, straight up OS X interface (or so they say). Took them 2 days to build on a 400 mHz TiBook.

It's a pre-alpha, really buggy type deal, but it is open office, and should be improving itself as time goes on.

I built it too. Took me an evening (maybe 4 hours) on my G4 867. (I was pleasantly suprised.)

VERY buggy. Crashes a lot, windows don't redraw properly. To be honest, it was so bad I didn't play with it much.

This will be nice when they get it finished... I'm a big fan of openoffice... even at work on windows I used it up until they told me I couldn't anymore...
