Well, a quick note on this. I attempted to follow the steps in the 
document to setup OO.o for creating these files. At a few steps what the 
document describes is not consistent with the choices I see in my 
installation. I made my best educated guess as to how to proceed, and 
well I suppose I am not particularly eductated, as I manged to not get 
the new menus or functions avaliable but did manage to hose my install 
of OO.o rather badly. Fortunatley it was the QiQ build and as Frank as 
just released a new one I will simply remove the old and re-install.

Anyway, I have sent a request to the folks at the OOOAuthors project to 
see if someone there can help with this. Not only with getting the 
environment setup but also as an editor and or writer.

The more I think about it the more convinced I am that this is an 
extremely important part of this project. It may well make or break it 
as far as usablility goes.
