Also there are many white papers on the deployments of OOo
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Major_OpenOffice.org_Deployments

There are also some bibliography on those documents that will send you to  
other more complete documents of migrations and implementations.


There are some testcases on the education project too.

Hello everyone,

Can anybody point me to something like a whitepaper on OpenOffice.org?
I'm looking for a press-ready report that evaluates OpenOffice.org as
a replacement for the Microsoft Office suite. Ideally, this should be
targeted towards the education sector. I found many websites with
informal reviews and comparisons, but I really need something more
substantial to present my case to the IT overlords at my school.

Sincerely,
Yuhan Fang

The above is a link to web pages I'm preparing for the UK government
backed Schools Open Source Project. It is aimed at education but is
about FOSS in general rather than OOo specifically. There is a specific
bit about OOo about 75% of the way down. I think this project at some
point will fund more in-depth work on Open Source applications and OOo
would be a likely candidate.

There is also a free Moodle course on using OpenOffice.org at

http://theingots.org/moodle/course/view.php?id=11

Just log in as a guest to check it out. You need to make an account -
it's free - to do the tests. So if they say they are worried about
training or support you have an answer. We also have government
accredited qualification in Open Systems that are OpenOffice.org
friendly.
