[Libreoffice-qa] [ANN] LibreOffice 4.2.0 beta1 test builds available

[Christian Lohmaier]

Hi *,

for the upcoming new version 4.2.0, the builds for beta1 are now
available on pre-releases

It is the first of two betas  (and thus a LibreOfficeDev build) and
can be installed alongside the stable version.

See

https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/ReleasePlan/4.2#4.2.0_release

for the complete schedule.

Grab the builds from here here:

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

The builds include the full set of languages, although translations
have not been updated for 4.2 yet.

If you've a bit of time, please give them a try & report any severe
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.

The list of fixed bugs relative to 4.2.0 alpha is here:

http://dev-builds.libreoffice.org/pre-releases/src/bugs-libreoffice-4-2-release-4.2.0.0.beta1.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,
Christian
