Andrea; The FAQ section on the wiki is more up to date as I took on the task a year ago to update it with the relevant FAQ's from the website. I thought I had sent a mail to the list to have the relevant one's from the website redirected, but I apparently never sent that. Obviously the whole question is opened again as to where they should reside. I have categories all ready for the Developer FAQ's. I did not touch them as part of the original clean-up as I do not have enough knowledge in that area to pick and choose which are still relevant. If the decision is to move them to the wiki I will be more than glad to do the grunt work of rewording them, I just need some assistance from the developer community as to which ones are still relevant.

Hello Rahul, I apologize for the delayed response. The marketing-subscribe address you sent to is only used for mailing list management functions. No human monitors that address. Apache OpenOffice is open source software published by the Apache Software Foundation. We are a non-profit public charity. We do not sell software, maintenance or support. But we do publish OpenOffice for anyone to download, use and redistribute, without charge, according to terms the Apache License 2.0, which you can find here: http://www.apache.org/licenses/LICENSE-2.0.html If your customer requires commercial support then I would refer you to the following page, which lists a number of companies that provide services for OpenOffice: http://www.openoffice.org/bizdev/consultants.html I think that takes care of all your pricing questions. You also had some questions related to language and operating systems. You can see our system requirements here: http://www.openoffice.org/dev_docs/source/sys_reqs_aoo41.html A list of supported languages is here: http://www.openoffice.org/download/other.html#aoo In addition to those languages, our next version, OpenOffice 4.1, which we plan to release in the next week, will support: Bulgarian, Hebrew, Danish, Hindi, Kazakh, Norwegian Bokmål and Thai.

do you consider most beneficial? Right now, the WHY page seems to me the most straightforward way to get the right information to folks. I'll work on a better teaser for it from the home page today in a test area so we can take a look and evaluate. OK, FYI -- take a look at home page mockup at: http://ooo-site.staging.apache.org/test/ I also added more details to the WHY page. When we hone in on what we want to do about a revised FAQ, of course, we should link to that.
