I'm lost, and others may feel the same.

Making your life simpler is what this discussion is meant to do... so no problem!

Head to the download page http://www.openoffice.org/download/ (Right column, Additional Resources, Development builds) to get the builds between 4.1.0-beta and the coming 4.1.0 final. These are probably the ones you are interested in. Hebrew will be available after the next run (tomorrow). This corresponds to item #2 in your list above.

Item #1 is the beta release, 4.1.0-beta. It is the one we want the general public to test. But volunteers who have already tested the beta and need to check specific bugs or features addressed after the beta will probably want to use #2.

So we have:
[Beta = #1] --> [Snapshots from AOO410 = download page or #2] --> 4.1.0

Item #3 contains snapshots that are built from time to time. They can be built from the trunk or from a release branch (not every bugfix or feature we add now will go into 4.1.0: most of them will be used for the version after 4.1.0, so they go to "trunk" instead of going to the "AOO410 branch"). They currently contain a snapshot that was taken for the Beta, so they are not useful at the moment. When we are not near a release, they are built from trunk and are a good way to test the latest changes.

  Andrea.
