Dear Community,

The Document Foundation is happy to announce the second beta release of
LibreOffice 3.6.0. The upcoming 3.6.0 will be our fourth major release
in two years, and comes with a nice set of new features. Please be
aware that LibreOffice 3.6.0 Beta2 is not ready for production use,
you should continue to use LibreOffice 3.5.4 for that.

The release is available for Windows, Linux and Mac OS X from our QA
builds download page at

  http://www.libreoffice.org/download/pre-releases/

A note for Windows users: this beta release installs in parallel to
your current stable build, and thus can be easily tested alongside.

The (still growing) list of features for the upcoming 3.6.0 is on our
wiki - please help filling gaps there, e.g. by providing more
screenshots:

Should you find bugs, please report them to the FreeDesktop Bugzilla:

  https://bugs.freedesktop.org

A good way to assess the beta quality is to run some specific manual
tests on it, our TCM wiki page has more details:
