LibreOffice Bay Area Meetup on May, 11 2013

Posted in Community, Meetings By Bjoern Michaelsen On April 26, 2013

After the success of the LibreOffice Impress Sprint in Germany last month, we are very happy to announce the first LibreOffice Bay Area Meetup. It will take place on May 11, 2013 starting at 2pm in the Hacker Dojo in Mountain View, California. Simon Phipps and Bjoern Michaelsen will be there and have some hopefully interesting topics prepared:

  • “Foundations and Empires” (Simon)
  • “LibreOffice, the Document Foundation, the universe and all the rest” (Bjoern)

We will also have time for some good Q&A, and most importantly: some hands-on work on how to get involved in the project.

We are excited this was made possible in collaboration with the friendly local folks helping us out here (notably and among others: Mike Higashi, Geo Mealer and Alison Chaiken) and hope to meet and greet many of you there.

You are invited, please consider dropping us a note here!

    I am the founder of ProjectLibre and am sorry to have missed the Meet-up. We have an open source replacement of Microsoft Project and looking to work closely with TDF! ProjectLibre is already in 200 countries but we continue to try and get the word out. Microsoft Project is part of the Office family so this is important for LibreOffice.
