No, speakup doesn't work with openoffice.org applications. What you want for that is orca, a screen reader for the gnome desktop. Gnome and orca, and the openoffice.org suite as far as I know, are all included in the speakupmodified fc9. Having said that, I've done some limited checking out of how well orca works with openoffice.org, and from that have concluded that it works fairly well. Maybe someone else with more experience in that area can comment.
