Which according to my calculations leaves about 1% using Jaguar or 
earlier.  Sorry folks, but I would NOT baseline OOo 2.0 on this 
version.  I agree with you, Tino, Panther gets my vote.  Too many folks 
to leave behind if we baseline on Tiger.  However, all Panther builds 
MUST run on Tiger, and that seems to be a sticking point at the moment.
