On the Sever OO can be handled by JAVA or C+. We prefer JAVA.
OO will run as a server on port 8100.
In Java (similar in C)the steps will be:

1) get the connection to the OO-Server
2) open the document
3) save the document in OO Format (or any other available)

At the moment we have a JAVA standalone application that opens Word or 
any other document in OO. If there is any interest (i.e. sponsoring) we 
could transfer that to a server based version.
