"With the release of Linux-based Xandros Server 2.0 Standard Edition, well-known Linux desktop vendor Xandros offers compatibility and other services that may give Microsoft SharePoint Server some competition. In the new server, due in April, Xandros will include Netherlands-based
O3Spaces Workplace 2.0 office collaboration software. With Workplace 2.0, users will be able to use OpenOffice.org, StarOffice, and/or Microsoft Office to work on documents in commonly hosted Xandros workplaces. At the same time, Xandros claims, the system enables everyone involved in the project to track the work being done on it."

According to the O3Spaces documentation (see http://secure.o3spaces.com/ -- sorry folks, you have to create an account first) the Workspaces plugin only works with OpenOffice.org and StarOffice, making it much less useful for companies running Microsoft Office.
Considering that Xandros Server is designed around Windows and Office, in particular with Scalix for Outlook, this doesn't make much sense.
