Question I have is why SuSE 9.2 put Open Office in /usr/lib?
It's in /usr/lib ? Even the executables? That's not nice at all. I took deep exception to their placing the firefox executable in /opt/MozillaFirefox/lib too, I don't know where this trend of placing executables in /lib comes from. I don't like it one bit
and then called it ooo-1.1. What was wrong with /opt/OpenOffice?
Well, open office 2.0 is right around the corner (slated for January IIRC), so adding the version number to the directory is probably a good idea to avoid collision, but /opt/OpenOffice-1.1 would be better
According to your URL /opt is where they should have put the Addon Application.
Yes it is, I agree
