Hi Andrea, Thanks for the clarification!
I found this page: https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OOOUSERS/Development+Snapshot+Builds "The builds linked on this page are intended to be used for *final testing* of release candidates by community volunteers." But the "Buildbot output area" links to a page with snapshots for AOO 4.1.2. Not really helpful... At least the Linux Buildbots are working again. Hopefully someone is working on the Windows Buildbots after the migration to Win10/64bit.
