+There are two approaches:
+- Use the development version of Org->Odt exporter
+
+ A native Org to OpenDocumentText exporter is in the works. The
+ exporter is currently not part of Orgmode repository. See the
+ following [[http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2011-01/msg01210.html][Announcement]] on the mailing list for further details.
+
+ At the moment, the exporter supports the following most commonly
+ used features of Org
+ - Various Character Styles
+ - Various Paragraph Styles (including Source Blocks)
+ - Embedded ODT
+ - Embedded MathML
+ - Numbered, Bulleted and Description lists
+ - Embedding and Resizing of Images including embedding of LaTeX
+ fragments
+ - Fuzzy, Dedicated and Radio Targets and Links
+ - Tables
+ - Footnotes
+ - Special markups for elements like TODOs, Timestamps and Tags
+
+
+- Use existing exporters
+
+ Export to one of org-mode's supported export formats and then use an
+ external tool or method to convert the exported file to doc or odt.
+
+ With simple documents, these methods work well. However for complex
+ documents containing footnotes, embedded images, math formuale etc
+ the results may be less than satisfactory. (Note, the lists below
+ are by no means comprehensive).
+ 1. html -> odt/doc/rtf

Done!

AFAIK, worg is still on repo.or.cz. Or am I wrong? I couldn't find a
repo of worg on the orgmode server's gitweb [1]

No you're right. We plan to move Worg to the new server but I wanted
to make sure we don't have problems with org-mode.git on the new server
before doing the switch for Worg.
