Go to above mentioned web page or one of the ones below.
<http://sourceforge.net/projects/openofficeorg.mirror/files/localized/>
<http://sourceforge.net/projects/openofficeorg.mirror/files/4.0.1/binaries/>

Even on the page for the current Version 4.0.1 you will see recommendation 4.0.0 as latest version
Comment 1 Andrea Pescetti 2014-03-29 14:12:53 UTC 
Is this still wrong? I see 4.0.1 (for the right platform) in both the pages you mentioned now (but I confirm it used to be wrong, i.e. 4.0.0, the last time I checked).
Comment 2 Rainer Bielefeld 2014-03-29 16:56:52 UTC 
I don't see the wrong recommendation any longer

Synopsis of the problem: the default downloads on SourceForge were not updated with the new uploads. SourceForge support has updated them as follows:

Mac: /4.0.0/binaries/en-US/Apache_OpenOffice_4.0.0_MacOS_x86_install_en-US.dmg/download -> /4.0.1/binaries/en-US/Apache_OpenOffice_4.0.1_MacOS_x86_install_en-US.dmg/download
Win: /4.0.0/binaries/en-US/Apache_OpenOffice_4.0.0_Win_x86_install_en-US.exe/download -> /4.0.1/binaries/en-US/Apache_OpenOffice_4.0.1_Win_x86_install_en-US.exe/download
Linux: /4.0.0/binaries/en-US/Apache_OpenOffice_4.0.0_Linux_x86_install-rpm_en-US.tar.gz/download -> /4.0.1/binaries/en-US/Apache_OpenOffice_4.0.1_Linux_x86_install-rpm_en-US.tar.gz/download

To manage this in the future, any admin or developer that has “Release Technician” privileges on the SourceForge project can set the default download through the web UI File Manager.

Instructions:

 1. Go to the Files page while logged in to access the File Manager
 2. From the File Manager navigate to the directory that contains the file
 3. Select the "i" icon for the file you wish to set as the default download
 4. On the bottom right check the boxes for the operating systems which you wish the file to be the default download for.
 5. Select save

That should then set the default download as the file you selected. There may be up to a 5 minute delay before links are updated. 

Note that by updating the new default users who subscribed to the "Keep me updated" service will get notified of the availability of a new version.
