Playing devil's advocate here: does it make sense to actually post

Yes I think it is worth it and we should train to do such things
more often.
First of all we prepare our community on the patch. It will be the
first time that we tell them what we did and why.
The second benefitial point is we will set a expectation. Currently
it is still fuzzy one, but people will be looking for an update more
frequently, so if we deliver a week later that would be awesome.
On third: In the blogpost is we invite for testing. So maybe m,ore
people will show up to look at the Release Candidate.
but then we shouldn't forget to mention the download location of the
RCs. Only then more people can help to test.

We would then only learn of it if people run into issues. I rather
have them write a short mail to dev list, as I have suggested it in
the proposal.
just to see if I understood it correctly:
- From the blog post the Mac users learns about the problem and want to
try the RC build
- They write a mail to dev@
- We write back a link where to download
- They then writes back if any issues arise or just to state that all is
fine
Right?
OK, for the moment I've added the following:
"We would be happy to give you more details when you want to help us
with testing. Just write a mail to the developers mailing list
dev@openoffice.apache.org."
Please tell me if something has to be adjusted.
Marcus
My last pro argument is we need also to link other channels to the
blog post. On facebook it takes some days untill a post reaches the
people.
So in case we extend the range it would be great. Just as a
reminder, we usually do not say anything, and people are used that
the dev team works more behind the scene.
Maybe it is better to address the issue with the release
announcement...?

Please put Peter’s text in a cwiki page so that it can be
edited. We cannot promise a release by the end of the year.
We should not imply that macOS Big Sur is the only reason for
4.1.9. All platforms will benefit.
Thanks for your efforts.
+1 once the text is properly edited.
