Re: [libreoffice-users] Re: [tdf-announce] Get ready for LibreOffice 4.3 bug hunting session

Hi :)
ooops! i sent again before editing or completing! :(

The link for the QA team is in the announcement.  The link for posting
bug-reports is here
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/BugReport
but i think there is something special set-up for people taking part in the
competition.

I wish there was a prize (other than kudos) for the winners!  Not that i'd
win it!
Regards from
Tom :)
