One other option would be to have a user option to select between a iWork palette style or the current toolbar options, made available to all platforms.

A kick start for the discussion would be a good thing. Having a prototype is the first step to starting the discussion.

I'm not familiar with coding and programming, so the most I could do is draw up a mock-up. However, I personally think that the iWork design is very professional (and I got used to it more quickly than the Ribbon style of MSO 2007 after using MSO 2003), and in Thunderbird when writing an email it has a similar theme, and this style I think should generally be the goal. The best thing would for there to be a type of round-table discussion on design, as well as what elements of iWork and the existing OOo would produce the most user-friendly and professional looking program.

Hi Ariel,

If you can come up with a full design spec (and potentially the code too, or even just a prototype), then a full revamp for the toolbars to make them more mac like is going to be a great thing.

The problem at the moment for the developers, is that we know that it needs to change, however we don't know what we want it to look like. If there is the goal of make them look like x, then it is a lot easier. Another reason for developers not working on this just now, is that currently it is a low priority item.
