So a major change with respect to the OpenOffice.org release process would be that no explicit approval is needed for localized versions. This is probably related to the multi-language build model, where you don't want to wait for 20 or so explicit approvals in order to release the English version, but still distributing possibly untested software does not seem very good to me: I did see cases at OpenOffice.org where only one localized version would not start, or would have blocking issues. If you need very recent examples, in the OOo 3.3 release cycle at least two localization-specific stoppers were found and fixed upstream in OpenOffice.org and thus ported to LibreOffice too: http://qa.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=115232 [IT only] http://qa.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=115774 [FR only] Regards, Andrea Pescetti. _______________________________________________ LibreOffice mailing list LibreOffice@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice
