+= ZOO Kernel using !OpenOffice UNO support =
+
+To be able to use the Exporter ZOO Service Provider, you'll have to follow this intructions.
+
+== Install !OpenOffice and start it in server mode ==
+
+First of all, you'll have to setup OpenOffice on your machine, then use the following commnd to start OpenOffice Server :
+
+{{{
+#!sh
+soffice -nofirststartwizard -norestore \
+        -nocrashreport -norecovery \
+        -accept="socket,host=127.0.0.1,port=3662;urp"
+}}}
+
+Now, you should get an OpenOffice server ready to be used remotly, using {{{127.0.0.1}}} ip adress and {{{3662}}} port.
+
+Make sure your OpenOffice Server started correctly using the following command (replace {{{grep}}} by {{{findstr}}} on WIN32 platform) :
+
+{{{
+#!sh
+netstat -na | grep "LISTEN " | grep 3662
+}}}
+
+== Compile ZOO Kernel ==
+
+First compile using your local Python installation. Then edit the Makefile and set {{{PYTHONCFLAGS}}} to your local OpenOffice Python headers installation path as for {{{PYTHONLDFLAGS}}} to the python shared library provided by OpenOffice.
+
+Here, you'll find the specific section sample you can copy/paste in your local Makefile :
+
+{{{
+PYTHONCFLAGS=-I/opt/openoffice.org/basis3.0/program/python-core-2.3.4/include/python2.3/ -fno-strict-aliasing -DNDEBUG
+PYTHONLDFLAGS=-L/opt/openoffice.org/basis3.0/program/ -lpthread -ldl -lutil -lm /opt/openoffice.org/basis3.0/program/libpython2.3.so.1.0
+}}}
+
+Now, recompile your ZOO Kernel then copy it into your apache cgi-bin directory using the following commands : 
+
+{{{
+#!sh
+make clean
+make
+cp zoo_loader.cgi /var/www/localhost/cgi-bin/zoo_loader_oo.cgi
+}}}
+
+Now update your {{{/etc/ld.so.conf}}} to add the directory where the OpenOffice shared lilbraries are located.
+
+{{{
+/opt/openoffice.org3/basis-link/program/
+}}}
+
+Note that if you already have a {{{/libpython2.3.so.1.0}}} installed in your {{{/usr/lib}}} directory then you'll have to save then create a symbolic link from {{{/usr/lib}}} to your OpenOffice corresponding library.
+
+== Configure your ZOO Kernel ==
+
+To make the Exporter ZOO ServiceProvider working, you'll have to edit the main ZOO configuration file ({{{main.cfg}}}) located in the same directory as you kernel to add some specific parameters needed by Python to support UNO.
+
+First, set the paths in {{{[env]}}} section, as for other parameters in this section they will be automaticaly setted by ZOO Kernl before calling ZOO ServiceProvider. Then, add the {{{[oo]}}} section containing the parameter {{{server}}} which contain the UNO connection string (setted to your local OpenOffice Server listen adress and port).
+
+{{{
+[env]
+LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/opt/openoffice.org3/basis-link/program/

+
+[oo]
+server=uno:socket,host::127.0.0.1,port::3662;urp;StarOffice.ComponentContext
+}}}
+
+Also ensure that the following parameters are present in your {{{[main]}}} section :
+ * {{{dataPath}}} path to find the original document (sample value : /var/www/localhost/htdocs/data-srtm)
+ * {{{tmpPath}}} path to store produced document  (sample value: /var/www/localhost/htdocs/ms_tmp)
+ * {{{tmpUrl}}} (Optional) url to get back produced document - relative to the ZOO Kernel location (sample value : /ms_tmp/)
+
+
+To check which are your local parameters, please use the following commands : 
+
+{{{
+#!sh
+/opt/openoffice.org3/program/python
+>>> import sys
+>>> print sys.path
+}}}
+
+== Test it ! ==
+
+Last thing to do before testing your ZOO ServiceProvider is to deploy it in your local installation.
+
+{{{
+#!sh
+cp zoo-project/zoo-services/openoffice/cgi-env/ /var/www/localhost/cgi-bin/
+}}}
+
+Now evertyhing should be correctly settled up on your local system. To test your local !OpenOffice !ServiceProvider, please use following urls (supposing that you get a {{{demoDoc.odt}}} file located in your {{{dataPath}}} directory) :
+
+{{{
+http://localhost/zoo/?Service=WPS&Request=Execute&Version=1.0.0&Identifier=OdtConverter&DataInputs=InputDoc=demoDoc.odt@dataType=string;OutputDoc=demoDoc.pdf@dataType=string
+}}}
