Hi Rainer,

        Quite quite :-) so Beta1 will be much better. And given the state of
Beta 0 - treating it as the quiet practise run it is (rather than
announcing it widely) seems to be the best policy ...

Shit happens, now the question is how we will go on. I am afraid we have 
to go the hare way and to find and fix all bugs, or is there any other 
possibility to try a new chance?

        Well - we've fixed a number of the most obvious packaging bugs,
parallel installability etc. etc. in master - so (without further new
problems - of which we expect some up to the freeze) Beta1 will be
rather better.

        Of course it is still -very- early in the schedule:

        http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/ReleasePlan/3.5

        We still have 6 releases over two months in order to fix up the misc.
quality issues to get this right enough for a good point-zero
release :-)

        So - beta 1 is due next week; until then perhaps using the master
builds is a good plan (if they're better - they will turn into Beta1
anyway).

        Thanks for testing ! and sorry if it caused some grief.

        All the best,

                Michael.
