Hi :)
The 3.3.x series is the stable series with a years worth of support. It's for
corporate use and for places where re-installs and bug-fixing is not really a
good choice. The 3.4.x series is the testing/development branch and tends to
have extra functionality and new features.
A lot of OpenSource projects work this way.
Yes, I know, like GIMP, but they do it the other way around: Even
numbers for stable releases, like 2.6. I just didn't know that the
LibreOffice developers do that too, since the OpenOffice.org people
don't.

With the linux kernel it's the odd
numbers that were going to be testing/development branch. The 2.6.xx.whatever,
is meant to be stable. Ubuntu is a little different in having an "LTS" release
every 2 years with 3 years support. Debian has a stable and separate testing
and development branches. SliTaz call their's a "cooking" release. RedHat use
a separate distro, Fedora, for testing interesting ideas.
Regards from
Tom :)

Subject: Re: [libreoffice-users] LibreOffice 3.3.3 is ready for download
Why is there a 3.3.3 when 3.4.0 was released a while ago? Apart from
the incredible amount of bugs in 3.4.0…
