This year’s pre-eminent European Free Software conference: FOSDEM (Brussels 5-6th February) will have a great LibreOffice presence. We have just published our developer room schedule with some great speakers and talks. Come and hear about how you can get involved with developing LibreOffice, and/or pop by the stand to meet the people behind the project. Hope to see you there next month.…

Now that the new year has started, we will also start a new round of public phone conferences. If you want to participate, you can cast your vote on the date and time at Doodle. For the marketing phone conference, see details at http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/www/marketing/msg01800.html and for the steering committee call at http://listarchives.documentfoundation.org/www/steering-discuss/msg00366.html

More information on the calls itself as well as the agenda is available in the wiki at http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Marketing/ConfCalls…

Dear Community,

The Document Foundation is happy to announce the second release candidate of LibreOffice 3.3. This release comes with lots of improvements and bugfixes, and a very substantial reduction in size for the Windows installer. As usual, be warned that this is beta quality software – nevertheless, we ask you to play with it – we very much welcome your feedback and testing!
