Re: [releases] Uploaded MacOSX ppc version of OOo OOD680_m1 packages

Rene:

Thank you for the update and correction.  

I've seen both rc and m used with a release.  I agree that the standard should 
be m (for milestone build) and then when this is deemed QA worthy, changed to a 
Release Candidate.  This allows more builds than candidates as some builds may 
have regressions and/or additional issues.  And the final should always be 
marked in some fashion as the final build and all milestone/release candidates 
removed except the final release candidate builds that were not fully tested.  
This was the decision for the Mac OS X PPC and Intel builds.

James M.
