To Eric Hoch nad Eric Bachard,

Sorry for cc'ing you guys but I wanted to catch you both before you
disappeared for the night.

As you can tell I know little about Macs. So, would one of you fix the
odt please as best you can and ship it directly back to me. I can deal
with French and some German providing the terms are not techie. I will
include the proposed packaging scenario as well as it's very much like
what is proposed for Windows. A single executable that installs the
software. 

Anyone else can chime in too. the issue to update with comments is
http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=37513 

Either way I would like to fix the Mac section so it's reasonable.
