       Work that I have completed:
1) I have built a mysql-connector-ooo.oxt along with LibreOffice Version 
4.1.0.0.alpha0+ (Build ID: f2e706d87399911e300c0101c876e44f2819c50). 
This is a 32 bit build.
2) I have used these two builds to connect to a MySQL 5.5 server 
locally. Very little testing done yet other than opening forms and 
looking the contents of a couple of queries.
3) I have used them to connect to a MySQL 5.5 on a network remotely. 
Similar regular testing.
4) I ran LibreOffice Version 4.0.1.1 (Build ID: 
2c0c17a6e4bee0ee28131ea4bdc47edc700d659). I installed the 
mysql-connector-ooo.oxt file on 4.0.1.1. (Extension Manager show it to 
be version 1.0.2.) I can also connect locally or remotely to the two 
MySQL 5.5 servers and ran similar testing.
5) I installed this MySQL Connector 1.0.2 on 4.0.1.1, but I can not 
connect to either server.
6) I am beginning a 3.6 version beginning with git checkout -b 
libreoffice-3-6 origin/libreoffice-3-6
.
