 The release is available for Windows, Linux and Mac OS X from our QA

The pre-release page only lists binaries; would it be possible to add links
to the source code tarballs for people wanting to build LO themselves ?

As far as I know, the tree has not been tagged so the only way to get the
exact same sources used to create theses binaries is to download a complete
archive.

Well - people who want to build LO themselves (and don't happen to be
distro-packages with a policy that requires to build from tarballs as
opposed from checking out a repository) should generally checkout LO
from git - this is easier than to fiddle with the individual tarballs.

 As far as I know, the tree has not been tagged so the only way to get the
 exact same sources used to create theses binaries is to download a complete
 archive.

No - every released build is from a (signed) tag. Only the
dailies/nightlies are not from a tag (obviously)

See e.g. 
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/tag/?id=libreoffice-3.4.99.3
(that's the one for 3.5.0beta3)

If you really want the source-tarballs, then go to
http://download.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/src/3.5.0/ (but
once again: When you're interested in building betas, then I suggest
to get the stuff from the repo directly.

I was just wondering why the links were not present (I knew the urls); I
guess I have my answer now: tarball use is discouraged.

I stand corrected.
Howewer, this tag doesn't appear in my freshly updated copy of the core
repository. How come ?

Need to ask git developers why tags are not treated equally.

Use git fetch --tags to explicitly request tags to be fetched, this
should work and make the tag available.

I think that by default you do not get tag that you don't 'need' ...
so if a tag is put, a posteriori,  on a commit you already have you
won't automatically get it.

[Libreoffice] [ANN] LibreOffice 3.5.0 Beta3 available

2012-01-16 Thread Thorsten Behrens
Dear Community,

The Document Foundation is happy to announce the third beta release
of LibreOffice 3.5.0. The upcoming 3.5 will be our third major release
line, packed with many exciting new features. Please be aware that
LibreOffice 3.5.0 Beta3 is not ready for production use, you should
continue to use LibreOffice 3.4.5 for that.

The release is available for Windows, Linux and Mac OS X from our QA
builds download page at

  http://www.libreoffice.org/download/pre-releases/

Should you find bugs, please report them to the FreeDesktop Bugzilla:

  https://bugs.freedesktop.org

A good way to assess the Beta3 quality is to run some specific manual
tests on it, our TCM wiki page has more details:

 
http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/Testing/Regression_Tests#Full_Regression_Test

 (and the announcement mail: 
http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/libreoffice/2011-December/022464.html)
 
For other ways to get involved with this exciting project - you can
e.g. contribute code:

  https://www.libreoffice.org/get-involved/developers/

translate LibreOffice to your language:

  http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Translation_for_3.5

or help with funding our operations:

  http://challenge.documentfoundation.org/

A list of known issues with 3.5.0 Beta3 is available from our wiki:

  http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Releases/3.5.0/Beta3

Please find the list of changes against LibreOffice 3.5.0 beta2 here:

  
http://download.documentfoundation.org/libreoffice/src/bugfixes-libreoffice-3-5-release-3.4.99.3.log

Let us close again with a BIG Thank You! to all of you having
contributed to the LibreOffice project - this release would not have
been possible without your help.

Yours,

The Document Foundation Board of Directors

[Libreoffice] [ANN] LibreOffice 3.5.0 beta3 available

2012-01-12 Thread Thorsten Behrens
Hi *,

for the upcoming new version 3.5.0, we continue with a beta3 build
that is now feature-complete. For further milestones on the way
towards 3.5.0, please refer to our release plan timings here:

 http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/ReleasePlan#3.5_release

Builds are now being uploaded to a public (but non-mirrored - so don't
spread news too widely!) place, as soon as they're available. Grab
them here:

 http://dev-builds.libreoffice.org/pre-releases/

If you've a bit of time, please give them a try  report *critical*
bugs not yet in bugzilla here, so we can incorporate them into the
release notes. Please note that it takes approximately 24 hours to
populate the mirrors, so that's about the time we have to collect
feedback.

The list of fixed bugs relative to beta2 is here:

 
http://dev-builds.libreoffice.org/pre-releases/src/bugfixes-libreoffice-3-5-release-3.4.99.3.log

So playing with the areas touched there also greatly appreciated - and
validation that those bugs are really fixed.

Thanks a lot for your help,

-- Thorsten
