Dear Community, The Document Foundation is pleased to announce the first release candidate of LibreOffice 4.3.0. The upcoming 4.3.0 will be the eighth major release of LibreOffice, coming with a bunch of new features beside the usual bugfixes.
RC1 is in release configuration and can be be installed alongside the stable version on linux and Mac OS X, but will update an earlier version on Windows. Feel free to give it a try and participate in the Bughunt https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/BugHunting_Session_4.3.0_RC1 RC1 is not ready for production yet (there are two additional RCs planned), and while it marks English string freeze, translations are not all up-to-date yet. A work-in-progress list of new features in LibreOffice 4.3 can be found at https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/ReleaseNotes/4.3 The release is available for Windows, Linux and Mac OS X from our QA builds download page at http://www.libreoffice.org/download/pre-releases/ Developers and QA might also be interested in the symbol server for windows debug information (see the release notes linked below for details) Should you find bugs, please report them to the FreeDesktop Bugzilla: https://bugs.freedesktop.org A good way to assess the release candidate quality is to run some specific manual tests on it, our TCM wiki page has more details: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/Testing/Regression_Tests#Full_Regression_Test For other ways to get involved with this exciting project - you can e.g. contribute code: http://www.libreoffice.org/community/developers/ translate LibreOffice to your language: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/LibreOffice_Localization_Guide or help with funding our operations: http://donate.libreoffice.org/ A list of known issues and fixed bugs with 4.3.0 RC1 is available from our wiki: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Releases/4.3.0/RC1 Let us close again with a BIG Thank You! to all of you having contributed to the LibreOffice project - this release would not have been possible without your help.
