Description
It seems strange to have three OpenOffice.org applications in the Office menu, but have one over in the Drawing menu. All of the OO.o applications should be in the same menu.

I would remove it all together as a standard program since I doubt many people use it. Add things like 'Advanced Desktop Effects Settings' and 'Shared Folders' before this. But if you have to add it then your idea makes sense. +1

i'd scrap the program generally instead of moving it.

I suppose you could have it appear in both menus.

OpenOffice.org Impress requires Drawing to work, so it can't be removed.

It's a drawing application, not an "office" application.

Uninformed users that are looking for a drawing tool won't expect to find it in Office menu.

Most uninformed users are looking for something like Windows Paint, not a vector graphics tool like this.

That's the idea I'm just about to post.

And by the way, it cannot even save files in popular image formats, but just its own formats, so it's definitely not a program belonging to the "Graphics".

+1. OpenOffice stuff should stays with Openoffice. Shouldn't be seperated.
