when clicking on the download link for Mac OS X OOo version 2.4.0, the bouncer
app (url
http://openoffice.bouncer.osuosl.org/?product=OpenOffice.org&os=macosxppc&lang=en-US&version=2.4.0
) times out searching for the Mac OS X 2.4.0 release. This is because the
release isn't actually available yet.

Unfortunately, the Bouncer error page makes no mention of why the attempted
download failed, only that it did fail.

With the OS X release backed up a couple of days with QA issues, all attempts to
download the 2.4.0 release of OOo for Mac OS X should immediately return an
error message clearly and succinctly explaining that it is unavailable, why, and
when it is expected to be made available.

In fact, this is probably a good general rule: if there is a release held for
any reason, Bouncer should be made immediately aware of this, or the auto-detect
download page should be updated to reflect this.
