The essential requirements for Windows are clear and concern the 32-bit Java 'problem'. For Linux, at least the issues of system integration and uninstalling LO are also involved. About MacOS I personally know nothing. Maybe it would be best if I say here that I will think about detailed requirements together with the update (*) of the German installation manual? (*): I have to explain this briefly: as part of the ProOO-Box's work on the German AOO documentaion (see comments on http://www.openoffice.org/de/doc/index.html), I am currently working specifically on the installation manual. Problem is that I, due to lack of time, unfortunately only very slow progress, advantage is that I really binding work on it. As sorry as I am, I can't say until when this work will be done, but it will take _at least_ a few more months. Yes, it makes sense to leave out technical details for now, but I recently came across (through an info on users-de@...) the following issue where I think improvement is needed (in the medium term): our download site works almost not at all without JavaScript. Namely the linking to https://www.apache.org/dyn/aoo-closer.cgi/openoffice/ does not help the user at all because there are no relevant mirrors for AOO. I had already addressed the 'problem' with mirrors myself (here on this list), but got little response. I don't want to go into both things (JavaScript, Mirror) here, but I would like to ask you to keep them in mind.
