Does this sound more informative?

Yes, now only one issue... "more mature" is comparative, but there is
no comparison present. (Well, one is implied.) I'd change this
sentence to:
These forums are mature and heavily trafficked. They offer quality
support for LibreOffice, and can be found by searching online.

So this newer version:

"You can get support for LibreOffice from various independent forums run by
LibreOffice and OpenOffice.org users and supporters. These forums are mature
and heavily trafficked. They offer quality support to LibreOffice and can be
found by searching online. LibreOffice does not offer an official forums
board at this time. An official forums board is still under consideration."

I am not quite sure what is the significance of the "and can be found by
searching online". Remember, the reader is already on the LibreOffice
website page "getting help" page.[1] I am not sure if it needs this part of
the sentence as it is ambiguous.

I'm fine if it's not there. Overly obsessive, but I'll work on getting
over it B^)

Thanks for the answer. So, we should then go with the blurb without the "and can be found by searching online" part.

Here it is:

"You can get support for LibreOffice from various independent forums run by LibreOffice and OpenOffice.org users and supporters. These forums are mature and heavily trafficked and offer quality support to LibreOffice. LibreOffice does not offer an official forums board at this time. An official forums board is still under consideration."

I'll post this blurb on the website list and ask that the "Forums" section be updated to this new blurb.

Cheers

Marc
