+
+<p>(An <a href="https://issues.apache.org/ooo/">OpenOffice Bugzilla</a> login will enable you to search for any bugs that may interest you.)</p>
+

+</ul>
+
+
+<p>The QE team has been tracking additional fixes as well. See their complete reports at:</p>
+
+<p><a href="http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/QA/Report/WeeklyReport">http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/QA/Report/WeeklyReport</a></p>
+
+<p>Additionally, starting with version 3.4.1, Apache OpenOffice now has the benefit of static analysis provided<br/>
+by <a href="http://www.coverity.com/">Coverity</a> to detect software defects before the code is even released. Special thanks<br/>
+to Coverity for providing access to their award winning tool!</p>
+
+<h2><a name="AOO3.4.1ReleaseNotes-PerformanceImprovements%2FEnhancements"></a>Performance Improvements/Enhancements</h2>
+
+<ul>
+ <li>Cleanup of temporary areas used by extensions installations. This will reduce the per-user disk footprint for multi-user installations.</li>
+ <li>Keeping only one English dictionary for US-en installations instead of 5. This will save user space.<br/>
+Users will be able to add other English dictionaries (Canadian, Australian, New Zealand) as desired</li>
+ <li>Hunspell library upgraded to version 1.3.2 from 1.2.9. This version contains several improvements especially<br/>
+for Dutch, German and other Germanic languages with extended compound word usage.</li>
+</ul>
+
+
+
+<h2><a name="AOO3.4.1ReleaseNotes-MicrosoftWindows8Compatibility"></a>Microsoft Windows 8 Compatibility</h2>
+
+<p>With this release we have tested with Windows 8. So far it looks good.
+We are in the process of going through the official Windows 8 Certification checklist and some minor issues still remain. See the wiki document below.</p>
+
+
+<p><a href="http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/Windows_App_Certification_Kit_-_Test_Results_for_Apache_OpenOffice_3.4">http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/Windows_App_Certification_Kit_-_Test_Results_for_Apache_OpenOffice_3.4</a></p>
+
+<p>Note: the improvements made in Apache OpenOffice 3.4.1 to better support Windows 8 will also benefit Windows 7 users.</p>
+
+
+<h2><a name="AOO3.4.1ReleaseNotes-KnownIssues"></a>Known Issues</h2>
+
+<ul>
+ <li>Apache OpenOffice 3.4.0 and 3.4.1 manage the user profile differently
+ than previous versions. The old user profile is automatically
+ converted so that users can keep their extensions and settings. In a minority of cases, especially with highly customized
+ profiles (many extensions or customizations) the conversion doesn't succeed.
+ Common symptoms are: frequent application crashes, problems with dictionaries or
+ thesaurus, OpenOffice starting and crashing after a few seconds. To solve this, j
+ ust reset/rename your user profile as explained in the official OpenOffice forum:
+ <a href="http://user.services.openoffice.org/en/forum/viewtopic.php?t=12426">http://user.services.openoffice.org/en/forum/viewtopic.php?t=12426</a></li>
+</ul>
+
+
+<ul>
+ <li>Apache OpenOfice 3.4.0 and 3.4.1 will be flagged by the new Gatewatcher facility in OS X Mountain Lion. This is a new feature to help guard against malware on Mac systems. There is a procedure laid out at the following link to allow applications not installed from the Mac app store to run. See the article at Mac support at <a href="http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5290">http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5290</a>.</li>
+</ul>
+
+
+<ul>
+ <li>Apache OpenOffice 3.4.0 and 3.4.1 support Java 7, which is the recommended configuration; but (especially on 64-bit Windows) you might receive warnings about the Java version being defective. In that case, download and install <a href="http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jre-6u32-downloads-1594646.html">jre-6u32-windows-i586.exe</a> and configure OpenOffice to use it at Tools - Options - OpenOffice.org - Java. See <a href="http://user.services.openoffice.org/en/forum/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=54974">http://user.services.openoffice.org/en/forum/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=54974</a> for more information.</li>
+</ul>
+
+
+<ul>
+ <li>The Apache OpenOffice 3.4.1 installation package for Windows will expand the installation files and immediately start the installation wizard. In rare circumstances, probably because of incompatibilities with other installed software, the installation wizard might not start automatically. In that case, just locate the "OpenOffice Installation Files" folder on your Desktop, open it and double-click on the file named "setup.exe" to start the installation procedure.</li>
