for now, I'd go with the latter one, but that's just my feeling...

Bah, details. ;)

(I think we refer to it as a forum in other places as well. But

Good catch - While the source is indeed available since 2000, I'm also
not sure about whether OpenOffice.org should be explicitly mentioned
here...

> Tried it in a browser and the links don't work -- yet.

Yes, the domain still has an additional "test" in it - so right now
the links would be www.test.libreoffice.org

I created placeholder pages of the pages mentioned in the readme on
the site, and put the readme up there as well (still with the
PRODUCTNAME placeholder and with no "only select passages matching xy"
controls though)
https://test.libreoffice.org/welcome/readme/ (plain http:// also works)

Thanks for giving Libre Office it's very own readme.  One thing that popped
out at me from the Getting Involved section was this: "familiarize yourself
with many of the topics covered since the ${PRODUCTNAME} source code was
released back in October 2000. " I dunno if you want OpenOffice for a
product there or a 2010 date on LibreOffice code release.  
Tried it in a browser and the links don't work -- yet.  Looks good - thanks
again.

One point I missed when looking through the links the first time:
The mailing list archives will be moved to some other location/domain,
so libreoffice.org/lists/users/ will not be the location of the
archive (but one can setup a redirect for that one of course - what
the final domain name will be isn't decided yet - see corresponding
mails on the admin list)

And "Your question may have already been answered - check the
Community Forum at http://www.documentfoundation.org/nabble/ " is
misleading, as that nabble is not a forum, but a mailing-list
interface in forum-style look and feel.

Unified to directory-style links. Also, changed all urls to be on
the libreoffice.org domain (except for central infrastructure, like
nabble).

Thanks for the work on this. Some remarks:
- the paragraph about changes on BerkeleyDB engine and extensions 
database incompatiliby seems strange when speaking about [for 
${PRODUCTNAME} versions prior to 3.2]. May be we should namely speaks 
about OpenOffice.org.
- could we replace the link www.libreoffice.org/access by

- I think we should completely remove the paragraph about Registration

- it is mention that IssuZilla is on our website, this should be

Hope this helps :)

Technically it is OK - while silverstripe by default uses "directory"
style links ( http://test.libreoffice.org/why/ ), you can also use it
with added .html ( http://test.libreoffice.org/why.html ) so no
problem from that side, but of course those pages don't exist yet.
(and welcome/readme.html or home/readme.html or product/readme.html or
home/readme.html... probably a matter of taste)

And it probably should then use a unified scheme (the accessibility
link uses the directory-style link)

The contributing one points to documentfoundation.org

And more important:

Do we want to have a support.libreoffice.org subsite, or do we want to
have www.libreoffice.org/support?

Now to some content questions:
* System requirements
  1,5GB of free harddisk for the Mac/Intel version? 150MB for download
package and 500MB for the installed product should be enough, so that
seems a little exaggerated.
And specifying an intel processor as the requirement for the Mac/Intel
version seems pointless :-)

For both mac versions (Intel/PPC) the requirements are Mac OS X 10.4 or newer

* Quirks
 How old is that entry wrt gnome and SESSION_MANAGER? I never
encountered that myself, and I never heard of such a problem on the
mailing lists...

* Registration
Readme mentions registrations, but for LO there is no registration, is there?

* The readme talks about a survey online, but doesn't mention how to
get there/hot to participate in that survey
