I'm a somewhat-satisfied openoffice.org user. I mean it works, but if
it weren't in Java I'd be doing some of my own tweaking. But since
it's in Java I stay away... no likey.

Has there been any talk of doing another similar office suite, or
maybe just writer + spreadsheet, in a better language eg python? I
expect it's a huge undertaking but ... thought I'd ask around at
least.
