		+ release beta1 on March 11 (might change according to the upstream
                  schedule)

	+ ooo-build-3-2 (3.2 maintenance mode):
		+ only save and well tested fixes are allowed in the common sections
		+ final release at
                  http://download.go-oo.org/OOO320/ooo-build-3.2.0.5.tar.gz
		+ (less tested) bugfix release at
                  http://download.go-oo.org/OOO320/ooo-build-3.2.0.7.tar.gz
