Hi,

I am happy to announce 3.2-beta4 release of ooo-build master. You might find 
it at

As usual, please, provide test builds for your beta testers and report bugs 
into bugzilla.novell.com for the product "OpenOffice.org".


Known bugs:
-----------

	+ build fails on Windows (caused by last minute fix :-(
          you need to apply the attached localize-ooo.diff; we need
          to set the variable another way to get the localize tool
          working on Windows; Fridrich is working on it
	+ see bugzilla for more ;-)
