The Linux build bots had not the necessary baseline we needed and for Windows I believe to remember that some requirements were not fulfilled as well. I think I can help to build the binaries ... But as I mentioned MacOS is currently not building and I haven't tired Windows and Linux for a while. AOO 4.1.2 should be build on the AOO410 branch and related fixes have to be merged from trunk. I think Andrea is working exactly in this direction and this is just a reminder how we did it in the past. The used build flags are on this wiki page in the bottom listed https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/OOOUSERS/Development+Snapshot+Builds They should be still valid, maybe the language list got extended.

None was done with buildbot. I do however have no idea what you would do on a dedicated vm. The buildbots can be reconfigured in a single file. You basically just need to update the configure statement, I do not know where we store the release config, I have asked that question in here several times. Digital signing, can be done from any machine (apache or private).

[RELEASE] Availability of machines for binary builds
We will have to release OpenOffice 4.1.2 as source and as binaries for Windows, Mac, Linux 32 and Linux 64. I don't know exactly what we used to build 4.1.1, but I believe that we relied on individual developers' hardware. Leaving digital signing aside for a while, what environments do we have available at the moment? Who else (other volunteers) can help with building (on their machines or even with a buildbot setup on the Apache Software Foundation servers), especially for Windows and Mac?
