There is a problem with the README files for Windows not being populated to 
archive.apache.org.

I suspect it has to do with the file name beginning with README, since the 
files such as Linux32.README.txt populated to the archive area just fine.

To rename the files everywhere is going to be a serious regression risk.

Instead, I am going to copy the three Windows README files (en-US, de, and nl) 
to openoffice.org in the folder for security bulletins.  They will be linked to 
directly from hotfix.html.

The hotfix.html file will be updated to locate those README files in that 
location once they are present.

Then I will complete this long and winding road with the updated advisory.

great. However, if you need some more help, just let us know.

Subject: RE: [PROPOSAL] General Availability of ApacheOpenOffice 4.1.2-
patch1 Hotfixes

[BCC to PMC, FYI to L10N and QA.]

The 4.2.1-patch1 release repository is now populated with the only
localizations that we have: English (en-US) and German (de) for all
platforms plus the additional Nederland (nl) for Windows.  The
localizations took until yesterday, 2016-08-25, to be completed.

Propagation to the archive site has begun and will probably not be
complete for another 24 hours.  Meanwhile, an updated CVE-2016-1513 will
be prepared.  The update will be posted when the archive is stable,
along with notification to dev@ and users@.  Those actions will provide
the general availability of the Hotfix.

While minor blemishes may remain, this material will be kept stable as
is unless a serious defect is brought to our attention.  Cosmetic
matters are appropriate to save for whenever we need to do this again.

One lesson: Localizations should not hold up release in the future.
Localizations not available during the initial dev QA and review period
should not stop the train.  Supplemental localizations are always
possible.  That will likely always be the case when a hotfix is made
available along with an initial vulnerability disclosure and advisory.
