I think it's a bad option not to name the RCs clearly. It is confusing that the file always has the same name (especially because the creation date is not visible on the server...) The RC files are intended to be the same as the final release files if the vote will be successful. The idea was to name the directory accordingly but there was a technical problem. Currently no files are available and the upload will start as soon as possible (still technical problems on the server).

Re: [RELEASE]: propose RC4 on revision 1587478
Hi Juergen The RC files are intended to be the same as the final release files if the vote will be successful. I am well aware of that. But it *is* possible to have an installer named 4.1.0RC4 and if it is accepted just rename the file. LibreOffice does that. When the final RC is accepted, the file is simply renamed. This allows to have RC1, RC2, etc clearly identified instead of having to guess which RC you are downloading or if the server has a new version. Just my 2 cents...

Re: [RELEASE]: propose RC4 on revision 1587478
This allows to have RC1, RC2, etc clearly identified instead of having to guess which RC you are downloading or if the server has a new version. Hi, for most users the difference does not matter, but for QA testers with lots of downloads and installers on PC that helps to keep overview (I even would like to see the Revision in the filename). If the RC has been accepted as Release the files can be renamed. It's a cost / benefit calculation. If it can be done with few costs I would like to have at least th RC in the filename as suggested by Pedro.

Well I can see the benefit but I avoided the extra effort so far, will think about an easy script to do it in the future.

I have been involved with functional testing and system testing for about 9 years. I have been writing test automation for about 15 years. This is my first open source project. I will probably get involved in development as well, but I would like to learn a lot more about the product , so QA is the place to do that. The technology I know from work experience is Linux, Java, C++, Python, Windows, .NET, and C#. The technology I have access to for the purpose of open source assistance is Mac OS, iPad, python, java, Windows 7. I have built test automation for GUI¹s , Linux based command line applications, messaging based applications, and .NET based applications. Hello Matthew, Welcome to the Apache OpenOffice project! I'm in the NE as well, in Massachusetts. You list an impressive range of skills. We have a Java/Eclipse based GUI automation testing tool for OpenOffice, where test cases are written in Java, but it has been neglected recently, since relatively few QA volunteers know Java. Maybe you want to take a look at it? In general we're in the end game for the OpenOffice 4.1 release, hoping to release before the end of the month. I'd expect another Release Candidate (RC4) in the next few days. They'll be some targeted testing to verify some fixes, but it will be very limited. It is a good time to regroup and plan for what we want to do for QA on the next release. Have you seen our New Volunteer Orientation page? It has a bunch of information useful for new volunteers, about Apache, about the OpenOffice project, as well as a specific page about QA: http://openoffice.apache.org/orientation/ Scan over those pages at your leisure. The QA page will deserve more attention since it will lead you to get signed up for the right mailing lists, wikis, Testlink, Bugzilla -- the tools we use for QA. Feel free to post back to the list with any questions. I or one of the other volunteers will try to help. Regards, -Rob I am following the instructions, so I do not yet have a Bugzilla ore test link account.

Afaik Bugzilla should be automated, check your spam box. Or try to do it again. The only manual process is to upgrade your account level to QA auditor.
