Alan!

FreeBSD's port of OpenOffice.org builds the OOo with GPC unconditionally. Your 
license prohibits commercial use of GPC without permission, yet the resulting 
OOo builds may, conceivably, be used by businesses and for other selfish 
purposes.

Are you comfortable with that, or should we modify the OOo port to use libart 
instead? Thank you!
