From here you can use standard text handling tools, mostly. It's still XML, so you might try tools that are specialized for handling an "XML diff". I've also heard of a "oodiff" or "odfdiff" tool that can handle the normal ODF format as output to OpenOffice.org or whatever ODF editor you want to use.
