 <h2>About ports and distributions</h2>

 <p>
 Apache OpenOffice (AOO) is a productivity suite which is already <a href="https://www.openoffice.org/download/">
 officially available for the following platforms</a>:
 </p>

 <ul>
   <li>Windows         - XP, Vista, 7, 8, 10, 11 (32-bit)</li>
   <li>Linux           - RPM / DEB-based (32-bit and 64-bit)</li>
   <li>MacOS X (Intel) - 10.4 (Tiger) up to 12.1 (Monterey)</li>
 </ul>

 <p>
 <b>What is a port?</b>
 </p>

 <p>
 When making AOO available for another operating system or CPU architecture, then this is called "porting or a port".
 Usually this is done on the source code level.
 <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Porting">More general information here</a>.
 </p>

 <p>
 <b>What is a distribution?</b>
 </p>

 <p>
 When taking an already available AOO installation and package it in a different way to make it ready to run directly,
 e.g., from a USB stick resp. CD/DVD or on another Linux OS, then this is called "distribution or distro".
 <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Distribution_%28software%29">More general information here</a>.
