Hi everyone :)

We've had quite a few users complaining about things not being perfect in the community builds (e.g. those provided by Pavel and Maho).

The QA project asks you to remind your community that these builds are provided purely for _testing_. They are QA builds. We provide them so we can test fixes and new implementations before release.

Many people benefit from these early builds, so their location has been fairly widely-publicized. That's great, if it means we get more testers and more feedback.

But some users seem to think these are early releases. Worse than that, they complain publicly and loudly about any imperfections they find in our QA builds, and that harms OpenOffice.org's reputation.

So we'd appreciate it if you would remind users that these are purely testing builds. Download them, by all means, enjoy them, but please don't jump on us if something goes wrong. They are what some other projects describe as a "sneaky peek" at the future release. We'll release the full version when QA is complete.

Thankyou for your help. :)

from Clytie, QA member
