As it seems the AOO 4.1.13 RC1 vote may pass (hopefully soon ), I'm
working on the announce email and blog post.

Since the .openoffice user profile is not backward compatible with
previous 4.1 versions for stored passwords, should we place a warning
for users to back up up their user profileĀ  in the announce email, blog
post, release notes, etc. or not necessary?

If we do mention it, we have to make perfectly clear that this will only affect users that enabled 
the "Openoffice dialog" AND have set a "Master password".
These are two options that are NOT enabled by default so only advanced users 
would use both.

That said, for those users, they have to realize that they MUST make a backup 
before updating IF they intend to downgrade AOO at any point (which is also 
something common users don't do...)

I hope such a warning is not confusing/worrying for common users...

you have good ideas what the text should contain. Would you like to try to write a paragraph? We all can then see what needs to be added.

Thanks

Marcus
