Question about upcoming 4.3.3 release

#1

Hi! I was looking at the "fixed bugs" section of the release notes for
LO 4.3.3 RC1
(https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Releases/4.3.3/RC1#List_of_fixed_bugs)
and noticed bug #66701
(https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=66701) was listed as being
fixed in LO 4.3.3. However, when I look at bug #66701, it's still in
"New" status and is targeted for release 4.4.0.

Who can I notify to see about getting the release notes corrected?

Thanks!

Peace...

Thanks for picking that up. Release notes are very much a volunteers'
business, and I usually only post a summary directly to the website
when the release is done. But first we need to know whether you picked
an actual mistake or if the bug report itself has not been updated.
I'll ping one of our release managers, Sophie, who just happens to be
on that list :slight_smile:

Sophie, do you have more info on this bug status?

Thank you,

Yes, you'll find the answer here
https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/#/c/11455/
if you look at the branch, you'll see that it's 4.3.
The bug is still on new because nobody closed it, most of the time, the
target is the next major, but if it can be added to a current branch
with no risk, it's done.

Kind regards
Sophie
