In a short Mailing List style burb please describe what it is and why
it's so cool?

I did a Google for "o3spaces" since a far as Gusty goes there is NO
package included in the Repository by that name and it came up with:
  <http://www.o3spaces.com/>

| O3Spaces Workplace is the essential Web 2.0 OpenOffice.org enterprise
| extension.

| O3Spaces Workplace brings document management and document
| collaboration features to OpenOffice.org / StarOffice and Microsoft
| Office, including real-time version control, check-in/check-out and
| document security.
| O3Spaces Workplace is the integrated Basic Content Service for
| OpenOffice.org / Staroffice and Microsoft Office.

Which only tells me it is some type of "crossover collaboration" thing
of some type or other.

 And that on the first page they couldn't keep from including the word
"Microsoft" in there sales pitch.

On the "About O3Spaces" page they start off with:
| O3Spaces B.V. is a young organization built around an experienced and
| innovative team of software engineers based in the Netherlands.

While all of the above makes for an interesting start for a "sales
pitch" of some type, it tells me nothing about what "o3spaces" is or
what it might be able to do for me.
