Hi QAs and all volunteers, You are invited to test this RC3 if you have time and would like contribute to the AOO 4.1.0. Please do testing widely and intensively, from installation, functions to integration with other applications in your system.
Any critical problems you find, please report immediately. Thank you! ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Jürgen Schmidt <jogischm...@gmail.com> Date: Fri, Apr 11, 2014 at 6:57 PM Subject: [RELEASE]: propose RC3 on revision 1586584 To: dev <dev@openoffice.apache.org> Hi, I would like to propose a new RC3 based on revision 1586584 of our AOO410 release branch. Integrated fixes for https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=124617 https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=124639 The fix for https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=124636 is not integrated because it is not really critical and the fix is not yet well enough tested. It is potentially not understandable for people why we don't integrate all available fixes but our experience have shown that even minor and on the first look uncritical fixes can cause regressions. As acting release manager it is my goal to stabilize the release branch and bring the planned release out. I am sometimes to optimistic and over motivated and try to push a release. But this time it becomes again clear that our code base is tricky and complex and we need probably more time to stabilize and test it. We published a Beta with >200000 downloads and received no critical feedback which was promising. But with the first RC we got several critical issues and partly on code that is in the product since last year. I am sure we can do better and the question after the release will be how we can improve this. Quality is important for us and I invite all to think about ways how we can improve this together.
