Following the links of the porting.openoffice.org/freebsd/ page will
get you here:
ftp://ooopackages.good-day.net/pub/OpenOffice.org/FreeBSD/

Look in the packages-8-amd64 or -i386 folders for packages for pretty much
any versions. I've been running the weeky builds of 3.3 without
issue.

I "think" the versions in the 3.2.1 folders are for 7.X, but I'm not
100% certain. Personally, for a desktop system I see no reason to
still be running 7.X, but that's just me :)
