Sorry for top posting, but I think we've discussed this enough to have
a sense of what our constraints are.
A quick proposal:
Let's start from this page:
http://www.openoffice.org/product/
That is linked to prominently from the homepage and the top navigation
bar.
I propose adding a new section to the left navigation panel, between
"Products" and "More". The new section will be called "Platforms" and
will link to four pages:
1) Windows
2) Mac
3) Linux
4) Ports
The first three will be new landing pages. The last one will link to
the existing /porting page.
Each of the platform pages will have basic system requirements and a
link to the download page. They pages can grow to contain (or link to)
other platform specific instructions or FAQ's.
As an example, here is what the windows page might look like:
http://www.openoffice.org/product/windows.html
We could try to keep the other platforms in a parallel form.

good idea! I like it!
OK. I've uploaded template pages for MacOS and Linux:
http://www.openoffice.org/product/mac.html
http://www.openoffice.org/product/linux.html
I really need help on filling in the details there. I don't think
I've touched a Mac since 1989. And even then I was confused looking
for the "on" button ;-)
At the moment my time is a bit limited for read/write the ML.
As it seems we have a consesus I can help much more on the coming weekend.
So, it depends on how patient you (we all?) are. ;-)
No rush, I won't add the links to the leftnav until we have the
content pages ready.
I've taken some information from the system requirements and updated a
bit the 3 pages:
http://www.openoffice.org/product/windows.html
http://www.openoffice.org/product/mac.html
http://www.openoffice.org/product/linux.html
@Ariel:
As you are building the Linux packages, maybe you can add some technical
data and fill the Linux gaps?

I could see /platforms/mac if we imagine creating in the future

Note that today, a query of "OpenOffice for Linux" has this ancient
page as a #1 hit:
http://www.openoffice.org/dev_docs/setup-linux.html
And the #1 hit for "OpenOffice for Windows" is not even at our
website. It goes to CNet's download.com page.
Very interesting. Indeed this could also be the way to catch users
who
look
for "OpenOffice Portable", for example, and should know that we do
have a
(third-party, from winPenPack) version available; they are now
offered
an
ancient version since OpenOffice Portable has not been updated yet.
The
updated version is not on the first page of search results.
Exactly.
In the last month we've seen the following related queries:
openoffice portable 2,500
open office portable 1,000
openoffice portable italiano 150
apache openoffice portable 16
portable 90
openoffice portable download 16
portable openoffice 12
openofficeportable<10
office portable<10
openoffice portable日本語版<10

openoffice 3.4 portable<10
openoffice portable deutsch<10
openoffice.org portable 日本語版<10
portable open office<10
openoffice.org portable<10
openoffice portable 日本語<10
For many of these queries the #1 page is the German page:
http://www.openoffice.org/de/downloads/oooportable.html. That is not
the optimal page for most of these queries.
