Many of us depend upon OpenOffice to handle office suite documents, many 
of which are generated through non-open-systems end users of the 
proprietary Microsoft office suite.  I need it for that purpose, but 
also to handle legacy WordPerfect documents.

I use the production versions from the supplier, not any SL6 port or 
distro version.

The Oracle OpenOffice production versions for EL6, both IA-32 and 
X86-64, handled
WordPerfect.  Now that OpenOffice is under Apache, that support has been 
discontinued with the current Apache production version of OpenOffice. 
However, I have verified that LibreOffice production version does still 
support WordPerfect documents.  This may be of use for those who also 
have legacy documents.
