Hi Jim,

I think the goal of supporting an office suite for older-generation computers is viable only insofar as the operating systems these computers use share that goal. That narrows it down to Windows and Linux. The historical development of macOS is what it is: disruptive. Therefore, I would concentrate on the “latest and greatest” in macOS development.

This works for me.

We need to also figure out what we want to do regarding macOS and the x86/Apple 
Silicon division. We've stated for awhile that one of the reasons for AOO 
existence is to provide an office suite for old generation computers. That is 
why we still support older versions of macOS and build/ship x86 community 
builds. But that really also limits a lot of other things and sooner or later 
we'll need to bite the bullet and either say we are dropping older versions 
(and x86) or that we are keeping them, knowing that it hinders things.

BTW: Apple has gone on record that they are dropping Rosetta in the _very_ near 
future.

Hi All,

We could update our mac M1 machine from macOS 15.7 to 26 (Tahoe) now.

But maybe we should wait until:

is fixed and then test again on macOS 26?

Opinions?

Regards,
