OpenOffice.org Mac OS X Delivery Schedule
The Mac Porting Team for OpenOffice are actively producing a new Aqua build of OpenOffice.
Currently the Mac port is producing regular builds for both PPC and
Intel Macs. However only some locales are
being QAed and released as stable. At the moment, the Mac Porting Team
are keeping up with producing builds, as the main supported Operating System
builds of OpenOffice are produced. For more information see the roadmap for the OpenOffice project (PDF).
