I prepare to be ready to testbuild OO. And I prepare some tests based on 
the 4.1.3 marked Issues.

Okay will try to confirm some bugs and start with rated P1 Defects ones.

I checked today the Wiki. It was very confusing to me. "Development" 
seems to think more on Extending OOo in the sense of an Extension. It is 
not so much focusing on OOo Code itself. So I am not sure what you refer 
to JZL. Is there any Layer or architectural description on the C++ code 
on the Wiki?

All the best
