Unfortunately, the text is rather out of date. When Apple was drafting
it, they contacted us for information, and that was back in 2002 or
early 2003.  Fonts were still not anti-aliased, for instance.

At the time, I was trying to pitch OOo as the killer app for X11 on OS X
and a way to suddenly give all Mac OS X users the inifinite wealth of
open source technologies.  

Of course, Apple's ADC was interested but beyond that? Does that
infinite wealth of open source technologies spell bucks to shareholders?

You would think so....

Cheers
Louis
