I trust that has been done by now as what 3.4.0

complicating eventual graduation moves of your svn tree.
Good point. Thanks for reminding me. I have created bug 120425 [1] for
copying the category-A tarballs to an external server, apache-extras. I am
doing this on trunk because, as I hope you will agree, a micro release is
not the right place for such a change.
The issue is our svn tree will move after graduation, but there is no
redirection like there is with the website.
So instead of being in https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/incubator/ooo/
we will be in https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/openoffice or something
like that.
So those who have downloaded the AOO 3.4.1. source tarball will find
that their script breaks.
Not necessarily. There are simple technical solutions for this problem:
- Copy, don't move, at least the ext_sources/ tree of the repository.
The incubator copy can be deleted on our next release.
- Use an SVN link to keep the old incubator URL for ext_sources/ alive
until the next release.
- Wait with the transition of the repository until the next release.
Independently from this problem, it might be a good idea to have a
transition phase after graduation during which both URLs are valid.

Subject: Re: [VOTE][DISCUSS]: Release Apache OpenOffice 3.4.1
(incubating)
I plan on testing the Release Candidate 3.4.1 on WinXP/SP3, and
verifying installing over OOo 3.3.0, AOO 3.4.0 and LO 3.5.5.
It would be good if others could mention what they intend to look at,
so we can avoid unnecessary duplication of effort.
Also, is the RAT scan results online anywhere? It would be good to
review that.
Also, if anyone has handy a diff of the NOTICE and LICENSE files from
3.4.0 to 3.4.1, that would be good to review as well.
