Hi,
I would imagine it is fairly straightforward to upgrade to LibreOffice
after installing Debian Edu Squeeze, by using the packages from
backports.debian.org. This is what I have done on my own Debian
(non-Edu) Squeeze desktop, and it is more or less a drop-in replacement.
I seem to think it loads faster and runs a little smoother.
For Debian Edu (which I honestly haven't tried) I guess the upgrade
would be very easy for standalone desktops (add Backports to APT's
sources.list, then "apt-get -t squeeze-backports install libreoffice" on
all machines). For thin clients or anything that network-boots I
imagine an LTSP image must be rebuilt.
