Joost, Very interesting information. However, I never,ever ever ever mentioned any ORCL product so I don´t know why you bring that up :) Personally, I´d just envisioned a way to put Apache OpenOffice on my Linux server and be able to acess it from my Nokia N800 tablet running Mer Linux and a VNC client, among other older systems, but in a seamless way, not running a full vnc session with Linux windows manager etc.... I also have a pair of IBM Network Stations (powerpc) that I can use as thin clients by booting the FreeBSD port tailored for those.
