Greetings,
I just signed up to this list after having compiled OOo on my mac.


Good. Be welcome on Mac OS X porting mailing list  :-)


I have some questions regarding my compiled version, particularly why I'm not seeing the aqua menus displayed in the screenshots on the Wiki.


I'm glad one people more confirms OpenOffice.org can launch without X11, and starts to work :-)


Ok, I see what you mean : the relevant code has not been commited in cvs (this is mainly code I wrote), because review has not been done, and this is not yet the priority : painting , crashes and refresh must be fixed *first* .

Ismael Merzaq and me are working on Aqua Look and Feel, and the result will be completed for Ismael Google Summer of Code 2007 (and available for OOoCon2007, very probably)


Waiting, please explore the archives of the list, I provided all the URL where I put patches for the (start of) aqua look.


FYI, and if the mention is missing, all the patches I do provide are LGPL Licensed.



  I'm also experiencing painful lag in using OOo.

The writer lag is now fixed (Philpp Lohmann) . Please update your code, rebuild vcl, and try !


It loads quickly and without a problem, but once it's loaded and I clicked within the text editor and begin to type it can take 45+ seconds for the first characters to being displaying.

Don't forget we have to fix those issues before to provide alpha : means you are testing *pre alpha code*.

You are right : they are still refresh issues, and we are working on them with first priority.

But 45 seconds of delay is not correct : try to resize the frame, and you'll see the blinking cursor, and the text will be written correctly.

I have an idea, better say a track, on how to fix that, but I must discuss it with Philipp first ( very complicated issue).


Last but not least : Herbert Duerr, the biggest Sun specialist for fonts, is currently working on text issues, and no doubt we will have something great and working Soon , but this needs time and patience.



  I doubt this is normal behavior,


No, it isn't, and any help is welcome to imporve that.


so I'm curious if maybe anyone else has experienced this problem?

Refresh menus, drawing progressed during the week end, with Michael Sicotte work.


Please update your code and rebuild : you will see obvious changes  :-)


If this isn't the purpose for this list, please let me know and accept my apologies.


It is : all developers, and contributors are welcome :-)


I'm excited about the prospect of OOo on OS X and am more then willing to aide in any way possible.

aide ? Are you french ?


Last but not least, if you are not developper, you can contribute and help a lot the Mac OS X porting project with monetary donations using Cusoon Paypal : http://www.cusoo.org/spip

Thanks !!
