[ANN] Preview builds of 3.4 rc1 available

Hi *,

for the rc1 candidate, we're now uploading builds to a public (but
non-mirrored - so don't spread news too widely!) place, as soon as
they're available. Grab them here:

http://dev-builds.libreoffice.org/pre-releases/

If you've a bit of time, please give them a try & report *critical*
bugs not yet in bugzilla here, so we can incorporate them into the
release notes. Please note that it takes approximately 24 hours
to populate the mirrors, so that's about the time we have to collect
feedback.

Currently, debs, rpms, and Mac packages are available, or currently
uploading. Win32 will take some more time, this platform is usually
slowest to build. Mac PPC is back into production.

The list of fixed bugs in this release is here:

http://dev-builds.libreoffice.org/pre-releases/src/bugfixes-libreoffice-3-4-release-3.4.0.1.log

So playing with the areas touched there also greatly appreciated -
and validation that those bugs are really fixed.

Thanks a lot for your help,

-- Thorsten

Are we looking at end-of-June [or July] as a possible earliest release of 3.4?
That would give a month or more for RC versions.

I just would like to start making plans for the next version of the DVD project[s].
Right now the DVDs are 3.3.2 based. If we have 4-6 weeks till the 3.4 release, then I will know how much time I will have for the 3.3.2 DVD version and not make too many of them ahead. I hope to get the DVD printer shipped to me mid to late June, so I am not thinking about too many copies on my end, but others in my team? Also soon I hope we would have a link to the ISO file[s] for the NA DVDs [Windows, and Win/Linux/Mac]

Critical?? I tried with a .pptx I could not see any text!!

(Sometimes): No table,no text, no movie

Draw: A text is missing (de)

Files: one *.pptx and a picture

I am not sure, if these bugs are critical, but they should be checked...
