Mocking OpenOffice in python?

[Shane Geiger]

My take was that this is an effort to manipulate these files without the 
need for Open Office, so I replied as follows:

Open Office files (.ods and perhaps .odt) are just zipped or gzipped.  
Unpack that and then you are dealing with manipulating regular text 
files--probably HTML.
