Linuxare. LibreOffice 3.5 Release Announcement

LibreOffice is a free, open source, and multi platforms office suite developed by The Document Foundation as a fork of OpenOffice.org. If something has labels such as “free” and  ”open source” exactly, we can download, install and use it, distributed, edit the source code without pay any price. LibreOffice is largely compatible with other major office suites, including Microsoft Office, and available on a variety of platforms. Its developers’ goal is to produce a vendor-independent office suite with ODF file support, accessible to anyone and led by developers which do not have to sign their name to the product.

The Document Foundation (TDF) announces the first LibreOffice 3.5 bug hunting session, to be held in a virtual environment on December 28 and 29, 2011. Volunteer bug hunters will gather on the Internet from the five continents to spot software problems of the upcoming new major release, featuring a large number of improvements and new functions, in order to make LibreOffice 3.5 the best free office suite ever. If you want to participate, its easy.
