Perhaps a little bit OT, but what is the correct link to download the 4.0.0 Beta? Below I saw Beta1 build is in progress. Linux and MAC packages are even already available at http://dev-builds.libreoffice.org/pre-releases/; but the only Beta available at this link is for the Intel Mac.

Today's build still seems to work but people are still pushing last minute features... :-) Hmmm, wasn't the idea that you had a Alpha build to prevent the Beta1 to go wrecked ? IIRC in the past we had the problem that there were tons of un-addressed build / packaging issues before we even got to try to build release packages minutes after the feature freeze. The Alpha is an attempt to address the backlog of these before the rush has finished. Inevitably everyone tries to commit their last features just before B1 - that is life. Could you be so kind to discuss this in the ESC so that we know what is to be expected for the next release. Of course; having said all that - there is a big difference between fixing build-ability on several platforms and eventual product stability :-) Particularly this cycle we've had the tinderboxes green, and building product-like builds for a long time. Even better we have had several heros [ you know who you are ;-] reporting regressions as they arrive vs. master, and of course we have ever more unit tests. So - my hope would be that our Beta1 would be of a better quality than previous betas out of the door :-) but lets see. When is the freeze for RC1 planned?
