This may be counter-intuitive, but you have to click on the X11 icon in the dock instead of the OOo icon to get a window. If this is your first time using OOo, there may be a delay while it reads all your Mac installed fonts and converts them to a format OOo can use. Then you should see a registration setup screen. After filling that out, you should be good to go. Be patient and give it a chance, it does work. If you find it too frustrating, NeoOffice (link is in the same intro. page as OOo) works without X11, uses Java for some things, but doesn't need to convert fonts, or have separate File, etc. menus.
