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,
I think that the list of names cannot include the names of any individuals who 
paid any amount of money to put their name on that list.
We are talking about code committer, I see no one talking about money here ?
Your Team OOo site mentions it.
I thought Jürgen was talking about AOO about dialog box, I was referring to that topic,

sorry for the confusion,
