Hi,

http://www.test.libreoffice.org/ second paragraph currently reads:
"LibreOffice can open and save all Microsoft Office files"
Please change this to:
"LibreOffice can open and save most Microsoft Office files"

http://www.test.libreoffice.org/features/ reads:
"You can easily import any Microsoft document"
Please change this to:
"You can easily import most Microsoft documents"

Why? Well, MS Office is much more than Word, Excel and Powerpoint,
but these are the only MS applications LO is file-compatible with
(to a certain degree).

And, http://www.test.libreoffice.org/features/ reads:
"You can create and modify tables, forms, queries and reports that
use MySQL, PostgreSQL or Microsoft Access, or – better still – take
the next step to a powerful, stable, integrated HSQL database."

This gives the reader a wrong impression and creates wrong
expectations. Base *cannot* create and modify tables, forms, queries
and reports in Microsoft Access. Base can connect to databases that
are created in MySQL, PostgreSQL or Microsoft Access. Upon that you
can create forms, queries and reports in Base.

The integrated HSQL database ist *not* a step forward from MySQL,
PostgreSQL or Microsoft Access, but a very basic possibility to
build database applications without MySQL, PostgreSQL or Microsoft
Access.

Stefan
