Because of the chaotic, constantly-changing nature of the OpenOffice.org code, limited support from the larger OOo community, the limited number of developers capable of working equally as well in the UNIX/X11 and Mac/Cocoa/Aqua worlds, and limited resources, the Mac porting team had focused on releasing X11-based Mac versions of stable OpenOffice.org major releases.
A cause della natura haotica e constanza changeante del codo OpenOffice.org, il supporto limitato della grande comunità OOo, il numero limito di entranti capables dal mondo UNIX/X11 e Mac/Cocoa/Aqua, e il ressource limitate, l’équipe de portaggio Mac s’est concentrato sulle versione Mac basate X11 della stable OpenOffice.org.
