We must remember that the average user is relatively unskilled in computer knowledge and terminology; they want to press the button of the install package and have it install a working OpenOffice without intervention on their part. Such behaviour also as a good spin-off in terms of less User support being needed; lurking on the Forum one will quickly see that many awkward support cases are caused by insufficient computer knowledge of the users, as also by attempts on their part to out-guess the install process. -- Rory O'Farrell

It might be worth reducing the number of specific references to LibO to the bare minimum, and gereralising to stress that AOO code can be and is used by a number of other customised Office suites; we don't have to list them.
