Share the steps with any webupd8 readers who don't want to wait for
PPA (which might take a long time) or Ubuntu lucid to upgrade (well,

Before proceeding to the OpenOffice 3.2 installation (from its website ),
Please note that there are quite a few differences between this version
OpenOffice.org and the OpenOffice.org version from the Ubuntu

OpenOffice.org called oo-go. Read more about oo-go, here.

If you want to install go-Oo (from it's official website, not Ubuntu
Repositories) 3.2 in Ubuntu, see: how to install go-oo 3.2 in Ubuntu Linux.
