There was a recent discussion on this list about including OOo in a
book about open source tools for small business, starting roughly
here:
http://lists.flossmanuals.net/pipermail/discuss-flossmanuals.net/2009-April/001310.html

The OOo documentation project does a pretty good job of covering "how
to use the features", so duplicating that effort would not be useful.
But a goal-oriented approach, like the small business suggestion,
could be quite valuable. For example, OOo for students. Or teachers.

Of course, one standard piece of writing advice is "write what you
know". So, what do you use OOo for?
