Seems a new Open Office for Mac is available in an early alpha, that does not require X11 to run (info here). I'm don't know very much about MorphOS porting, but wasn't the X11 dependency one of the big issues with porting to MOS? Could this in any way help getting a MOS port of Open Office?

Not very much, because in this "preview release" OO uses the native gui of osx.

So we must use another wrapper for the gui, not the GTK one, but the "aqua" wrapper

For the MOS programmers the problems are near the same

Obivously you would not want to write a wrapper. Making a native GUI is a lot less work... Too bad with the size of a project like OOorg it's too much work no matter which way you'd try it. At least if you don't have a big team working on it.

OpenOffice is a huge project, bigger than firefox.
50-100 core developers would be needed to get OpenOffice done!
