What we strive for
The Document Foundation and LibreOffice represent already a future path of development for the OOo community and the OOo code base, as it was originally announced on September 28, 2010.
The Document Foundation:
- Is an independent self-governing meritocratic Foundation, created by leading members of the OpenOffice.org Community.
- Continues to build on the foundation of ten years’ dedicated work by the OpenOffice.org Community.
- Was created in the belief that the culture born out of an independent Foundation brings the best in contributors and will deliver the best software for the marketplace.
The development of TDF community and LibreOffice is going forward as planned, and we are always willing to include new members and partners.
We will provide as many information as we can with the progress of the situation. We are currently making every possible effort to offer a smooth transition to the project.
Charles-H. Schulz,
On behalf of the Steering Committee
of the Document Foundation.
