(please correct if I'm wrong, I'm no OOo expert in any way)

1. I _think_ it now either works with 2.0.3, or is finally able to be done properly during the next few months (ie. Fedora Core 6, Ubuntu 6.10 should include native 64-bit OOo).

2. Yes, it should according to some mailist list messages.

3. AFAIK the branch is not yet open, but planning is probably on the way in some fashion. It's going to be 3.0 however, it seems, with planned availability somewhere around 2007/2008.

Native OpenOffice.org for x86_64 has been in Fedora Development for a while. Try this:
yum -y --enablerepo=development install openoffice.org-writer.x86_64
Many thanks to OpenOfiice.org and Red Hat developers for making it possible. Special thanks to Caolan McNamara.
