Ubuntu 10.10 ships with OpenOffice.org [1]. LibreOffice may replace it
if it's stable/ready enough in 11.04 [2]. I think it's fair to say
that these are the facts... I'm not sure about beta releases though.
Of course, both LibreOffice and OpenOffice.org will be accessible
through the software centre.
