May I add to this the following link? http://ooo.lab-project.net/~ebachard/MacOSX/1.1.4/Tiger/ An earlier email to this mailing list gave this link as a version for Mac OSX Tiger. It may be the NeoOffice/J version. (NeoOffice/J is the same program as OpenOffice.org, but it has been built using Java. OpenOffice.org requires X11 installed and running, while NeoOffice/J is much more like native Mac programs.) If you write us, please send it to users@openoffice.org rather than to an individual person.
