@Larry Gusaas,
There are only a few people who have a Mac (I don't have one either).
So if you feel, that our documentation is lacking Mac-specific
content, how about joining the Documentation team and helping out?
Just complaining doesn't help with the problem.;)
Typical condescending remark telling users to fix ' themselves.
So pointing out problems is just complaining? How are you supposed to
know about problems if users don't point them out.

I hope the Apache OpenOffice project has a much more open attitude than
I see here.

I don't see anything condescending about Sigrid's remark. They echo the same that I said, if a Mac owner is interested in helping out, then it would be nice for him/her to take the lead. If we don't own a Mac it is difficult for us to test. I would think that this is an obvious statement, which Sigrid and I had to say.

I personally do not own a Mac and have no desire to own one. I can afford to purchase one, but using a Linux box is just more interesting for me as I actually donate my time at my school helping out families who have low income and who are interested in using an affordable computer and OS.

As for the ASF OOo, hmmm, I am not sure if they would have any other opinion of their team. I imagine that they probably could not help you out with it either if the people involved with screenshot guidelines do not have a Mac to test on. Common sense would say that they could not unless someone who owns one (just like you) were to help out.

Have a nice day.

Marc
