Some time has passed since we announced that we reached the goal of our 50.000 € fundraising challenge. In the meantime, we’ve updated you on our legal process via this blog, and so I’d like to post another update on where we stand and what our roadmap is. Numbers and Figures Let’s have a look at the Community first. In one word: I’m overwhelmed. What’s going on, what progress we make, the amount of creativity, contributions and and support we receive is just beyond imagination. Although I’m not a friend of numbers and statistics, they indeed do greatly help to understand what impact the Community has, how large it is. So, let me allow to share the most recent numbers with you: We have nearly 70 mirrors worldwide, offering LibreOffice for download. Plus, we have now about 200 new code contributors, providing patches, features and bugfixes for LibreOffice, plus 200 localisers and QA volunteers. Roughly 6,000 people contribute to our mailing lists, and about 7,500 opted in to receive announcements on new versions and releases. Plus, we’re very much in line with our release plan. Committees and Events We’re also breathing life to the committees set forth in our Bylaws.
