also don't forget the openclipart package. This is another boost if it works.

Hey Rony,
OpenOffice 3.1.0 is available for Ubuntu 8.04 in the Personal Package Archives (PPA) courtesy "OpenOffice.org Scribblers". Follow this guide:
http://news.softpedia.com/news/How-To-Install-OpenOffice-org-3-0-in-Ubuntu-8...
Its actually for Ubuntu 8.10, so replace deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/openoffice-pkgs/ubuntu intrepid main with deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/openoffice-pkgs/ppa/ubuntu hardy main
BTW, ignore the comments on that page stating that the method does not work for hardy. The PPA page (https://launchpad.net/~openoffice-pkgs/+archive/ppa) clearly states that there are packages available for hardy. Probably the added those packages later on.
I don't have Hardy installed, so couldn't test. Do report back whether this works.
Will definitely try it out on-site on Saturday. Thanks.
