I don't have any contacts at Amazon (and actually it seems that the
download is only available to registered users based in the US), but
indeed it would be nice to have 4.0.1 listed, OpenOffice is in their top
50 downloads. Can anyone approach them? The page to be updated is this one:
http://www.amazon.com/Apache-OpenOffice-Open-Source-Download/dp/B008XAXAC4
Thanks,
Andrea.

I contacted Henri Y. of Amazon and he told me that Don had already contacted another Amazonian about the matter and that the Amazonian had said he would bring it to the attention of the right group.
I was surprised, actually, that Don had not informed the list; but perhaps I just missed it. I was remiss in not telling you last week, here, but other things came up.

It does seem to me that Don was involved in setting this up initially ..
well, I'd CC him here and see if he might want to keep the connection
alive, but I don't seem to have his email address handy.
Anyway, as Andrea correctly points out it does only make this available in
the USA - oh well.
Thanks in advance for you time.

We did have communications with Amazon employees who work on Apache. I think Don Harbison was working most closely with at least one, though i can also contact him.
