Anything above an including Vista requires a modern computer nowadays so I think 64-bit windows will be gaining many adopters. I understand on win64 requiring 32bit Java will be a problem so we should consider a native win64 port. Our LibreOffice friends are kindly sharing some notes about it: http://www.libreofficeaustralia.org/lt/community/blog/planet/20110328/porting-libreoffice-x64-windows And of course Microsoft has kindly made the required tools available for Apache committers. So nice to live in a world with friendly competitors :) Pedro.
