Hi,

please note that the commit deadline for 4.0.0.0.beta2 is today,
December 17, 2012.

Please, try to get all late features done! This is the last beta. The
hard English string, UI freeze is getting close. It will happen with
the deadline for rc1 on Jan 7, 2013.

Hi,

December 17, 2012.

Wouldn't it be better that 4.0.0.0.beta2 will be released after the Test Marathon? This because of the possible version-confusion for the Test Marathon, which is based on the first beta ( We will be putting LibreOffice 4.0.0 Beta 1 to the test during an international, 6 day test marathon and we want to invite EVERYONE to participate! The testing will begin on *December 14th and continue through December 19th*.). I spoke with Joel Madero on IRC (QA-channel) about this confusion.

Kind regards,
Joren

It will: freeze today - release on Friday or so :wink:

But hey: thanks to you & Joel for the concern (and all the involvement in the test marathon!)

I hope with you that many can join a few hours in the next days.

Hi all,

LibreOffice 4.0.0.0.beta2 should be launched by December 19 to avoid confusion
