Is there any reason why the developer snapshots, r1325589, the same files as

or placed in product yet, of course.

I.e., aren't these worthy of QA and exercising as suitable for upgrading of

sure, people can use it and can test it in the same way as before. Taking it from this page should make clear that it's adev snapshot. But if people take it from the release candidate wiki the expectation might be different.

The reason why we point on the same bits is simply the amount of data that we have to move and to upload. Especially the upload is not always fun. Means mainly practical reasons.

Hi,

I was wondering if the AOO 3.4 Release Candidate is now available for
download? I see an entry in the Wiki that says so.

Many Thanks


The RC will be announced here on the list at least. The wiki was
prepared already but we have found a further issue with a placeholder in
the NOTICE file.
