Hi :) The 3.3.x series is the stable series with a years worth of support. It's for corporate use and for places where re-installs and bug-fixing is not really a good choice. The 3.4.x series is the testing/development branch and tends to have extra functionality and new features.
A lot of OpenSource projects work this way. With the linux kernel it's the odd numbers that were going to be testing/development branch. The 2.6.xx.whatever, is meant to be stable. Ubuntu is a little different in having an "LTS" release every 2 years with 3 years support. Debian has a stable and separate testing and development branches. SliTaz call their's a "cooking" release. RedHat use a separate distro, Fedora, for testing interesting ideas. Regards from Tom :) ________________________________ From: Johnny Rosenberg <gurus.knu...@gmail.com> To: users@global.libreoffice.org Sent: Tue, 21 June, 2011 18:04:43 Subject: Re: [libreoffice-users] LibreOffice 3.3.3 is ready for download Why is there a 3.3.3 when 3.4.0 was released a while ago?
