I have this morning scanned my Windows XP computer on which is installed 
yesterday's release of AOO 3.4.1 using AVG Free edition 2012.0.2197 (this 
morning's update) at the most detailed settings and it has received a clean 
bill of health.

The question that might arise in connection with the original post is that of 
the filename/download site; if it is from a legitimate (i.e. Apache controlled 
site) there should be no worries.

It was in the past not unusual for new releases of OOo to give false positives 
on many virus scanners - the hooks for online updating registered sometimes as 
poentialy unwanted programs/possible trojans.

As another poster (Dan?) pointed out, it is possible to check the Md5Sums of 
the downloaded file against the MD5Sum list on the Apache site, to be certain 
that it is exactly the file prepared and released by Apache.  If these sums 
check out then all should be well.

AIUI that's not possible to be *certain* that the file is identical [1].
Hashes are fine for checking that a download has not been
corrupted/truncated in transit, because the chance of a hash collision
in such a case is vanishingly small.

But they are not generally considered sufficiently robust to *prove*
that the download is what it appears to be.
It is theoretically possible to create two different downloads with
the same hash.

Obviously if the hash check fails, then there is a problem, but a
successful check does not provide 100% proof.

Checking the detached signature for the download is much more secure,
but is of course a bit harder to do.

I'm not doubting your remarks above about the possibility of duplicate hashes, 
but for most purposes the hash check is probably sufficient.  In any event, the 
timescale involved of some few hours after release would make the possibility 
of a rogue hash matching file quite remote (I hope!).

Yes.

 In any event, the timescale involved of some few hours after release would 
 make the possibility of a rogue hash matching file quite remote (I hope!).

Actually there will be at least 3-4 days when the files and hashes are
available during release votes.
But more likely the rogue file would be published later when it would
still catch some downloads.

Ideally we'd have a way for the user to verify this themselves,
without getting into command-line tools.  For example, a trusted
website with an applet that would verify hash and signature for a
local file.  Or could this conceivably be doe with Javascript?

I'm sure we would all be seeing a warning if there was an intrinsic problem in 
the compiled code.  Normal reaction from Volunteers on en-Forum is that a 
virus/malware warning on a new release of OpenOffice from the approved download 
sites is a false positive and I think so it has always proved; with the 
transition to Apache special care is needed until the AOO releases become well 
established, lest there be adverse publicity/comment.  

It would be helpful if Maurice could tell us the URL of the download site, the 
actual file name and size.

I finally found the image attachment that Maurice sent out originally.
 It said of the download, it is not commonly downloaded and could
harm your computer'.

So this was not a false negative but part of the reputation-based
mechanisms that AV's are starting to use.  They look at a variety
factors, including the age of the EXE and how many other users have
installed it.  If the program is new and not well known, then you will
get warnings like this.  The warnings go away over time.  The only way
to prevent them initially is to have your code be signed, or to
whitelist your hashes in advance with the AV vendor.

 Are they really all uploaded?

yes they are. I have already fixed the problem that some signature files
were not copied for Linux 64 bit (deb, rpm).

Seems to be a synch problem as Joe mentioned

 I'm not seeing the en-US version here:

 @Roberto: what do you need for SourceForge

 it's the same directory structure as for 3.4

 see http://www.apache.org/dist/incubator/ooo/

 I will work on the website

I will link in the new Release Notes where it goes and post some very
minor update to the Installation page tomorrow, 2012-08-22, (9:00ish
PDT) if that's ok.

I'm assuming Marcus will do what he's prepared at that time (tomorrow),
unless we hear otherwise.


OK, lets see.

09:00am PDT will be 06:00pm CET. Very likely I won't be home before
08:00pm CET (11:00am PDT).

What about to set the release time to 12:00pm PDT (high noon), will this
work for you all?

Marcus



OK, new release notes and slight tweak to install instructions are now 
in staging (committed not published), so when Marcus comes along in a 
bit and uploads the new 3.4.1 main download stuff and publishes, we 
should be in business.


I'm basically offline for a good part of the day today, so I hope all 
goes well.






But...Juergen and Marcus's tomorrow comes much earlier than mine so I
don't know exactly what time anything will be happening.

Hi all,

I got some questions maybe later, maybe stupid, maybe in wrong thread, but  
:


1) I hit today on [Stage] link today some times, is it problem ?

2) I need exact links for the files, and I don't know where the files will  
be.

It will be in SourceForce openoffice.mirror directory ?
(i can't provide Apache links because of load, right ?)

3) The whole ooo-site 'll be publised in the same time, so in this time  
have to

be all NL pages reworked ?

4) There wasn't been Slovak packages of AOO from 3.2.1, so lot of users  
use AOO 3.4 in Czech
language and 3.3.0 too (3.3.0 has only language pack). The redirection of  
update service to /sk/download

will not work right ?
Or is it used some geolocating service based on IPs  - from which country  
user access to pages(or can be)?


5) Google has indexed old SK page, (I slowly remove it) but is possibe  
force Google's robots to reindex page ?

NOT now but one day.

Thanks for answers and sorry for bad timing.

Michal Hriň

I just chatted with Roberto. He says they are ready!

So can we all get our page changes onto staging? No one publish yet.
But lets get the updated announcement, release notes, and especially
the updated download pages in place.

We can do a quick sanity check and if no problems are found then we
can publish them later tonight.

I'll hold off the announcement until tomorrow morning, giving some
extra time for any errors to be reported at low volume before we turn
on the fire hose!

  I will link in the new Release Notes where it goes and post some very
  minor update to the Installation page tomorrow, 2012-08-22, (9:00ish
  PDT) if that's ok.
 
  I'm assuming Marcus will do what he's prepared at that time
 (tomorrow),
  unless we hear otherwise.
 
 
  OK, lets see.
 
  09:00am PDT will be 06:00pm CET. Very likely I won't be home before
  08:00pm CET (11:00am PDT).
 
  What about to set the release time to 12:00pm PDT (high noon), will
 this
  work for you all?
 
  Marcus
 
 
  OK, new release notes and slight tweak to install instructions are now
  in staging (committed not published), so when Marcus comes along in a
  bit and uploads the new 3.4.1 main download stuff and publishes, we
  should be in business.
 
  I'm basically offline for a good part of the day today, so I hope all
  goes well.
 
 
  I'm at home now and just found this mail which seems to be the latest in
  this thread and for the 3.4.1 release.
 
  Is everything uploaded, distributed and available for public download?
  I had no chance yet to check myself, so I'm simply asking. ;-)
 
 
  We were waiting for the sync to finish, distributing the files to the
  US and EU distribution servers:
 
  http://www.us.apache.org/dist/incubator/ooo/
 
  and
 
  http://www.eu.apache.org/dist/incubator/ooo/
 
  It looks that looks like it recently completed.
 
  Just need a go ahead from Roberto.
 

 I just chatted with Roberto.  He says they are ready!

 So can we all get our page changes onto staging?  No one publish yet.
 But lets get the updated announcement, release notes, and especially
 the updated download pages in place.

 We can do a quick sanity check and if no problems are found then we
 can publish them later tonight.

 I'll hold off the announcement until tomorrow morning, giving some
 extra time for any errors to be reported at low volume before we turn
 on the fire hose!


For the time being AOO 3.4 is still the default, once the news is out we'll
set the dafult to AOO 3.4.1.
Note that the default comes into play for users downloading AOO directly
from SourceForge (mostly because of the Carousel on SourceForge directory
displaying the Apache OpenOffice ads).

Roberto




 -Rob

  If he says it is ready on their side can move our changes to staging

  Actually, we can move to staging now if we want.  But just be careful
  everyone not to publish yet.

Re: Fwd: [RESULT][VOTE] Release Apache OpenOffice 3.4.1 (incubating) RC2

that the Slovak translation is now available:

http://www.openoffice.org/cs/

That way, when someone upgrades from Czech 3.3.0 or 3.4.0, and gets
sent to that page, they will hear about the Slovak translation. Would
that work?

Or is it used some geolocating service based on IPs - from which country
user access to pages(or can be)?

Two things: new downloads and upgrade downloads. Upgrade downloads
get dispatched based on the language of the user's existing OpenOffice
install. New installs use the HTTP language headers, I think. But I
don't know the details of that logic.

5) Google has indexed old SK page, (I slowly remove it) but is possibe force
Google's robots to reindex page ?
NOT now but one day.

I can include a URL to the new SK page in the release announcement.
That should encourage Google to recognize it and index it.

Re: Fwd: [RESULT][VOTE] Release Apache OpenOffice 3.4.1 (incubating) RC2

So some possible confusion coming.  I'm seeing a few websites have
already announced 3.4.1 and are pushing users to www.openoffice.org.
Of course, they are not finding AOO 3.4.1 there yet.

For example this article is being spread via Twitter:
http://majorgeeks.com/Apache_OpenOffice.org_For_Windows_d3461.html

And I can see, via Google Analytics, that we're getting a good amount
of traffic referred to from that site.

So I'm going to spent the next hour or so verifying the download page.
 If others can help with this, please do:

http://ooo-site.staging.apache.org/download/other.html

I'll start going down the left-most column.  If someone else can start
on the right-most column (Mac) we should have this done quickly and be
able to publish that page.

I've also updated the Japanese and French NL pages.  The Italian and

automatically when we push the updates to that script.

Of course, they are not finding AOO 3.4.1 there yet.

For example this article is being spread via Twitter:

And I can see, via Google Analytics, that we're getting a good amount
of traffic referred to from that site.


The reason is simple: We are doing to much work in the public, here on

So, everybody can read and try if he can already get what others don't

So I'm going to spent the next hour or so verifying the download page.
  If others can help with this, please do:

http://ooo-site.staging.apache.org/download/other.html

I'll start going down the left-most column.  If someone else can start
on the right-most column (Mac) we should have this done quickly and be
able to publish that page.

I've also updated the Japanese and French NL pages.  The Italian and
Spanish pages seem to be hooked into the same Javascript we use on the
main download page, so I'm hoping they will point to the 3.4.1 release
automatically when we push the updates to that script.


The Italian page in staging already pointed to 3.4.1 indeed. I modified 
the Italian main page and download page so that they refer to 3.4.1. 
Changes are still unpublished, feel free to publish at release time.

1) 12 hours for the mirrors to sync?

2) SourceForge can grab the tree from dist.apache.org after you have uploaded.

3) Then website updates, some brief testing to ensure the links are
all working.

4) Then the announcement via all channels, including the upgrade notifications.

Do we want to set a tentative time for #3 and #4, so volunteers can
coordinate their availability tomorrow?

Fwd: Apache OpenOffice 3.4.1 announcement

Subject: Apache OpenOffice 3.4.1 announcement
To: robw...@apache.org

Hi Rob,

I'm the maintainer of LanguageTool (www.languagetool.org). I found a small
glitch in the OpenOffice 3.4.1 release announcement at
http://www.openoffice.org/development/releases/3.4.1.html:

 freeze problem with Calc when languagetools are installed

This problem is actually not limited to Calc, it at least also affects
Writer. Also, it mostly affects LanguageTool - not sure if languagetools
is supposed to mean that.

It would be great if you can change the announcement (if it's not too late
yet).

Thanks
 Daniel

LT works perfectly on 3.4.1. In fact the release notes say the problem
is now fixed.

@Roberto: what do you need for SourceForge

it's the same directory structure as for 3.4

see http://www.apache.org/dist/incubator/ooo/

I will work on the website
