[ANN] LibreOffice 3.5.5 RC1 available

[Thorsten Behrens]

Dear Community,

The Document Foundation is happy to announce the first release
candidate of LibreOffice 3.5.5. The upcoming 3.5.5 will be the fifth
in a series of frequent bugfix releases for our 3.5 code line. Please
be aware that LibreOffice 3.5.5 RC1 is not yet ready for production
use, you should continue to use LibreOffice 3.5.4 for that.

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/

Should you find bugs, please report them to the FreeDesktop Bugzilla:

  https://bugs.freedesktop.org

A good way to assess the beta quality is to run some specific manual
tests on it, our TCM wiki page has more details:

 (and the announcement mail: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/libreoffice/2011-December/022464.html)

Let us close again with a BIG Thank You! to all of you having
contributed to the LibreOffice project - this release would not have
been possible without your help.

Yours,

The Document Foundation Board of Directors
