It's true that if you go to the main downloads page and choose Macintosh in the dropdown list of OSs, you'll get taken to the Mac page. But if there is no previous indication that OOo is available for the Mac, why would potential new users go there in the first place?

I added more of an obvious link to the product page system requirements (http://www.openoffice.org/product/reqts.html) which won't be published for a few more minutes, to the 2.01 download page, where I clarified the installation instructions for Mac OS X, and then checked the other pages, like the About Us page, for mention. It was mentioned. I'm sure there are paths that one might take that will bypass mention of this other builds, but I think we have the obvious ones covered.. or are we missing big ones? We used to mention the key platforms on the homepage; this produced other mistakes.

John: Would it be possible just to use one system requirements page? right now, there are two--http://www.openoffice.org/product/ reqts.html and the official one (or what I thought was official, and by that I mean the one that is most maintained): http:// www.openoffice.org/dev_docs/sys_reqs_20.html. Having both causes confusion.


Best,

Louis
