I really wonder what will be in it...
I am taking special interest in the new version of StarOffice. Why this release? I can't help but wonder how Sun's aliance with MS is going to change things.

Consider that MS has already released many of the details for it's up coming version of Office to the public. Would Sun be in a position to know a bit more than Joe Average? I would venture a guess and say yes.

If StarOffice had the ability for the user to write some basic XML scripts it would make the conversion of MS Office Documents to StarOffice Documents (or the other way) very easy.

Yup, should be very interesting to see what this new "friendship" yields.
