The twothirds are true the rest not quite. We, the german OOo native lang project have released newer versions of OOo 1.1.x. Currently we are up to date with 1.1.4 for Mac OS X. The french native lang project imo has also released 1.1.3 and have a RC for 1.1.4 available. These versions fine using Panther and yes there are problems with Tiger for 1.1.4 but work is done to solve them. > Patrick Luby has stated that continued development of NeoOffice/J > beyond version 1.x will depend largely on increased community > support, both volunteers to handle coding and testing tasks as > well as financial support. Yes. But it shouldn't be forgotten that without a stable OOo X11 the process of getting NeoOffice/J 2.0 will be slowed down even more. Before Patricks donation of the code to OOo neither Patrick nor Ed helped us the OOo team in porting upcomming OOo 2.0 to X11. O.K. they have enough work to do with NO but in the end they benefit from our work, especially the work of Eric Bachard, Florian Heckl, Maho and other contributers to OOo, and only add the "native" GUI - which indeed is a lot of work and coding too. So please don't forget us the OOo X11 team. We deserve as much credit as Ed and Patrick do even if we are more or less "invincible". But we are working on this and hope that someday we are seen too. > Nick, it's great that you're so pleased with NeoOffice/J.

He can do so but if he wants to help he can do so here for OOo too. We need coders too.
