Dear Community,
The Document Foundation is pleased to announce the third release
candidate of LibreOffice 4.4.6 (the second wasn't announced publicly).
The upcoming 4.4.6 will be the sixth in a sequence of frequent bugfix
releases for our feature-packed 4.4 line. Please be aware that
LibreOffice 4.4.6 RC3 has not been flagged as ready for production use
yet, however feel free to give it a try instead of 4.4.5.
A work-in-progress list of new features in LibreOffice 4.4 can be
found at https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/ReleaseNotes/4.4
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 our Bugzilla:
https://bugs.documentfoundation.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:

been possible without your help.
