[ANNOUNCE] Availability of AOO-4.1.4 RC4

2017-09-22 Thread Jim Jagielski
Available for immediate testing are the source tarballs/zips and
community builds of Apache OpenOffice 4.1.4-RC4 (RC3 was DOA).

As noted, these are Release Candidates and are not official,
GA releases, although based on testing, the could become so.
So PLEASE test these out!

You can find these gems at:

   https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/openoffice/4.1.4-RC4/

Upon successful, positive feedback, a VOTE on blessing RC4 as GA
will likely be forthcoming.

Cheers!

In light of the previous decision (skipping RC3) they are already being 
uploaded to

https://dist.apache.org/repos/dist/dev/openoffice/4.1.4-RC4/

Yes, I understand that, but I'm just trying to help and you say it yourself: 
"The more different testing, the better."

I am aware that the current method of testing is not very systematic, but since 
we are suffering from a lack of programmers, I think it is right to help the 
few programmers in the best way possible. The latter means that I also find 
fast, orienting tests useful when helping programmers with their practical work.

OK, I've tested this bug and it doesn't occur to me anymore.
