Please - IMO this list is to offer help to other users of
OpenOffice.org. This application runs on a variety of operating systems.

If the number of users asking for assistance seem to be higher for
Microsoft Windows users it may very well be due to the overwhelming
disparity in download rates. For Linux of course the main route to a new
user is perhaps more likely via their distro, and so they may be asking
on the mailing lists or forums for that distro.

I expect Linux users to require less help in general, not because Linux is "better", but because on average, the Linux user is simply more sophisticated...

Some of them are going to be interested in other packages, Linux,
Mozilla, etc. - but by no means all of them. If they ask about an email
application for instance, well there you go give your advice all you want.

If they don't - then may I please suggest that we stick to helping them
with OpenOffice.org.

In other words - the application is OS neutral for the most part - this
list should be also.
Well said!
