LibreOffice project and community recap: June 2022
Here’s our summary of updates, events and activities in the LibreOffice project in the last four weeks – click the links to learn more…
- We started June by announcing the winners in the Month of LibreOffice, May 2022. Sticker packs and bonus merchandise are on their way – so a big thanks to everyone who took part! 😊
- Our community and certified developers are working on LibreOffice 7.4, the next major release. In June, the first Beta release was made available – help us to test it! And see the release notes for details about the changes. All being well, it’ll be released in mid-August…
- We’re still maintaining the LibreOffice 7.3 branch, of course, and on June 9 we released LibreOffice 7.3.4 with over 80 bugfixes and compatibility improvements.
- Meanwhile, রিং/ring (S R Joardar) from the Bangladeshi LibreOffice community told us about his efforts to spread the word about Free Software in his country. The community has set up a Bangladeshi Telegram channel to coordinate activities. Thanks to everyone involved!
- And finally, The Document Foundation is supporting a student through the Deutschlandstipendium initiative. We caught up with Julian Hübenthal to find out what he’s doing, and what he knows about FOSS already…
