I've seen a lot of people get confused by the inconsistency that 
double-clicking on an .odt or other .od? file in Nautilus starts Archive 
Viewer (displaying the ZIP file that it actually is), rather than 
OpenOffice.org, and that you need to start OpenOffice first and open the 
file through that interface. Can .od? files be associated with 
OpenOffice.org?

Thanks,
