We have to find a new text for this box. Any ideas!
I just added for 3.3.1 version a trademark notice, I think this also should make it in the 3.4 tree.

but I also wondered on how "OpenOffice.org acknowledges ..." is now the right term. Should it now read as "Apache ack..." ? or "$(VENDOR) ack..." ?

And we still have the feature that when you press ctrl-s-d-t the dialog content start scrolling to list a long list of names who have contributed to this project ... I think this was always very much appreciated and should keep it. Or does anything be against it or prevent it for whatever reason?
In the past this was a duplication of work doing this for the about box plus the website. From my experience you will forget every release some important names, so I'd suggest to exchange tho long scrolling list to a link on the web,
