So - to sum the above up, the symbol server did not work as at it was
set up, but works now after the weekend ;-)  If you want to upload the
release builds symbols, the best would be move the code from the above
mentioned commit directly to bin/ in core (together with the

http://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/contrib/buildbot/commit/?id=0fc460e1772b3f150a49b0b732f505f572fba65b

fixup), and use it for the release builds as well as in the tinderbox,
so that we have one master version of the symbols uploading script.

Cloph - one catch about the symbols is that the URL where they are
located must be all lower case! ;-) - WinDbg lowercases whatever you
provide there.  But overall they are not _that_ huge, currently about
2.7G.

For the QA purposes, I slightly updated the

https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/How_to_get_a_backtrace_with_WinDbg

article, but I am afraid it is still less than ideal; but at least the
First Time Setup should be easier to follow now.  Any improvements in
the article much appreciated :-)

All the best,
Kendy
