LibreOffice Asia Conference 2024 in Taipei – Government Migration and Community Experiences Sharing

Our Taiwanese community reports back from a recent event: The LibreOffice Asia Conference 2024 was held in Taipei from 2 – 3 August. This conference was suspended for several years due to the pandemic and was relaunched in Indonesia last year. In addition to the local community, there were many partners from the Japanese and Indonesian communities, as well as experts from Germany and Italy, representing The Documentation Foundation and the Open Document Format Technical Committee, who attended this conference. The main visual design of the conference was developed by students at the Open Design Club in National Chengchi University. They boldly adopted the theme of “rice” since that’s a common staple food in Asian countries, and created a series of exquisite logos, icons and merchandise. Staff in Government Day and the main poster There were two main topics in this conference: Government Day and Community Day. Government Day The first day, “Government Day”, focused on Open Document Format (ODF) policy and “Public Money, Public Code” (PMPC). Six scholars and experts along with LibreOffice community members were invited to give talks, which covered topics from policy theory to practical practices when adopting ODF and PMPC in government.

LibreOffice 24.8, for the privacy-conscious office suite user

The new major release provides a wealth of new features, plus a large number of interoperability improvements Berlin, 22 August 2024 – LibreOffice 24.8, the new major release of the free, volunteer-supported office suite for Windows (Intel, AMD and ARM), macOS (Apple and Intel) and Linux is available from our download page. This is the second major release to use the new calendar-based numbering scheme (YY.M), and the first to provide an official package for Windows PCs based on ARM processors. LibreOffice is the only office suite, or if you prefer, the only software for creating documents that may contain personal or confidential information, that respects the privacy of the user – thus ensuring that the user is able to decide if and with whom to share the content they have created. As such, LibreOffice is the best option for the privacy-conscious office suite user, and provides a feature set comparable to the leading product on the market. It also offers a range of interface options to suit different user habits, from traditional to contemporary, and makes the most of different screen sizes by optimising the space available on the desktop to put the maximum number of features just a

LibreOffice marketing activities in 2023 – TDF’s Annual Report

In 2023, the marketing team continued the deployment of the Strategic Marketing Plan, without overlooking ongoing activities to promote LibreOffice and support the efforts of native language communities (This is part of The Document Foundation’s Annual Report for 2023 – we’ll post the full version here soon.) Slide Decks and Videos for Marketing Purposes We updated presentations on The Document Foundation (project history and digital sovereignty), LibreOffice (technology, including commentary, and sustainability) and Open Document Format (standard format, ODF and interoperability, and OOXML issues) for use by community members. Videos are also available to help tailor a presentation to the audience. We updated the LibreOffice Technology White Paper, which explains the evolution of LibreOffice from a single desktop product to a product-based technology for personal or enterprise productivity that is the foundation for a series of products optimised for different platforms, such as desktop, mobile and cloud. To emphasise the importance of the LibreOffice technology concept, a specific logo has been created to make it visually easier to associate all products based on this technology platform. We also created a Security Backgrounder that describes – in a language accessible to everyone, even non-security specialists – the impressive work done by

Community Member Monday: Isabelle Dutailly

Today we’re talking to Isabelle Dutailly, who’s creating and updating templates for LibreOffice… Tell us a bit about yourself! I live in Paris, France, not that it really matters, and I am a writer. My favourite tool to write with is absolutely LibreOffice Writer. I also used to training adults on office software. So I think I can say why Writer is the best word processing software I know. And I am a knitter which led me to make some tools for knitters with Calc. That was surprisingly easy, knowing my absolute lack of abilities in maths. These tools are online and free to download. I designed and made this little guy: My computer runs Linux (Mageia) and only with free software, not because they are free of charge (and considering how much money and time I put on them, they certainly are not 😊) but because they give me freedom. I did things with LibreOffice that I never did with a proprietary office suite. For example, in 2017, because I needed (and still need) to organize the colours I use, I looked at the code (which was not difficult but I am not a developer, just a writer) and
