OpenOffice.org - MacOSX (X11)
For developers

Our Mission Statement

To develop OpenOffice.org on the Mac OS X platform.

At the moment this means producing continued releases of the X11 version of OpenOffice for the Mac, and the removal of X11 as a requirement thus making OpenOffice more Mac like. Once OpenOffice Aqua is released, the team will focus on making OpenOffice adhere to the Apple HCI guidelines.

How to Install OpenOffice.org 2.0.x (X11)

In order to run the OpenOffice.org you need to have X11 installed. As this can be a difficult process, we have provided a PDF to help you with this process.

For more information about X11 and how to install X11 read our FAQ and Apple's X11 website
