Ah, cool! It hasn't hit wa.au.debian.org yet but when it does, I'll tell you how it goes :-) | * Increased default font size for non-KDE/Gnome users from '8' to | '12' (not sure if this really is a point size).

Would it be possible to make this font size configurable, at least through an environment variable or something? A font that really is 8pt is still quite small; I have KDE and Gnome set to use a 10pt font for the UI, for instance. | * Added patch to make it possible to select which desktop | integration OOo chooses.

Did you mean to say experimental instead of unstable in your first paragraph? Cheers, Cameron.
