|
||
Internet, September 28, 2010 - The community of volunteers who develop
|
||
and promote OpenOffice.org, the leading free office software, announce a
|
||
major change in the project’s structure. After ten years’ successful
|
||
growth with Sun Microsystems as founding and principal sponsor, the
|
||
project launches an independent foundation called "The Document
|
||
Foundation", to fulfil the promise of independence written in the
|
||
original charter.</p><p class="P6">The Foundation will be the
|
||
cornerstone of a new ecosystem where individuals and organisations can
|
||
contribute to and benefit from the availability of a truly free office
|
||
suite. It will generate increased competition and choice for the benefit
|
||
of customers and drive innovation in the office suite market.
|
||
From now on, the OpenOffice.org community will be known as "The Document
|
||
Foundation".</p><p class="P6">Oracle, who acquired OpenOffice.org
|
||
assets as a result of its acquisition of Sun Microsystems, has been
|
||
invited to become a member of the new Foundation, and donate the brand
|
||
the community has grown during the past ten years. Pending this
|
||
decision, the brand "LibreOffice" has been chosen for the software going
|
||
forward.</p><p class="P6">The Document Foundation is the result of a
|
||
collective effort by leading independent members of the former
|
||
OpenOffice.org community, including several project leads and key
|
||
members of the Community Council. It will be led initially by a Steering
|
||
Committee of developers and national language projects managers. The
|
||
Foundation aims to lower the barrier of adoption for both users and
|
||
developers, to make LibreOffice the most accessible office suite ever.</p><p class="P2">The
|
||
Foundation will coordinate and oversee the development of LibreOffice,
|
||
which is available in beta version at the placeholder site: <a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20101001004502/http://www.libreoffice.com/">http://www.libreoffice.org</a>.
|
||
Developers are invited to join the project and contribute to the code
|
||
in the new friendly and open environment, to shape the future of office
|
||
productivity suites alongside contributors who translate, test,
|
||
document, support, and promote the software.</p><p class="P2">Speaking
|
||
for the group of volunteers, Sophie Gautier - a veteran of the community
|
||
and the former maintainer of the French speaking language project - has
|
||
declared: "We believe that the Foundation is a key step for the
|
||
evolution of the free office suite, as it liberates the development of
|
||
the code and the evolution of the project from the constraints
|
||
represented by the commercial interests of a single company. Free
|
||
software advocates around the world have the extraordinary opportunity
|
||
of joining the group of founding members today, to write a completely
|
||
new chapter in the history of FLOSS".</p><p class="P2">FSF President
|
||
Richard Stallman welcomed LibreOffice release and its stated policy of
|
||
only recommending free software. "I'm very pleased that the Document
|
||
Foundation will not recommend nonfree add-ons, since they are the main
|
||
freedom problem of the current OpenOffice.org. I hope that the
|
||
LibreOffice developers and the Oracle-employed developers of OpenOffice
|
||
will be able to cooperate on development of the body of the code".</p><p class="P2">"The
|
||
Document Foundation supports the Open Document Format, and is keen to
|
||
work at OASIS to the next evolution of the ISO standard", says Charles
|
||
Schulz, member of the Community Council and lead of the Native Language
|
||
Confederation. "The Document Foundation brings to the table the point of
|
||
view of developers, supporters and users, and this might accelerate the
|
||
adoption process of ODF at government and enterprise level".</p><p class="P2">Chris
|
||
DiBona, Open Source Programs Manager at Google, Inc., has commented:
|
||
"The creation of The Document Foundation is a great step forward in
|
||
encouraging further development of open source office suites. Having a
|
||
level playing field for all contributors is fundamental in creating a
|
||
broad and active community around an open source software project.
|
||
Google is proud to be a supporter of The Document Foundation and
|
||
participate in the project".</p><p class="P2">"Viva la LibreOffice",
|
||
said Guy Lunardi, product management Director at Novell. "We look
|
||
forward to working with the Document Foundation to help develop a solid
|
||
open source document software offering. Ultimately, we envision
|
||
LibreOffice do for the office productivity market what Mozilla Firefox
|
||
has done for browsers".</p><p class="P2">Jan Wildeboer, EMEA Open Source
|
||
Affairs at Red Hat, has commented: "All over the world, users,
|
||
companies and governments are moving to innovative technology solutions
|
||
based on Open Standards. Red Hat is proud to join this effort".</p><p class="P2">Mark
|
||
Shuttleworth, founder and major shareholder of Canonical, the makers of
|
||
Ubuntu, has declared: "Office productivity software is a critical
|
||
component of the free software desktop, and the Ubuntu Project will be
|
||
pleased to ship LibreOffice from The Document Foundation in future
|
||
releases of Ubuntu. The Document Foundation's stewardship of LibreOffice
|
||
provides Ubuntu developers an effective forum for collaboration around
|
||
the code that makes Ubuntu an effective solution for the desktop in
|
||
office environments".</p><p class="P2">"The Open Source Initiative has
|
||
observed a trend back towards open collaborative communities for open
|
||
source software", said Simon Phipps, a Director of the Open Source
|
||
Initiative. "We welcome The Document Foundation initiative and look
|
||
forward to the innovation it is able to drive with a truly open
|
||
community gathered around a free software commons, in the spirit of the
|
||
best of open source software".</p><p class="P2">"We welcome the
|
||
LibreOffice project to the free software community as we believe there
|
||
is a great opportunity for them to enrich the free desktop experience."
|
||
says Stormy Peters, Executive Director of the GNOME Foundation.
|
||
"Over the years the GNOME community has been supportive of
|
||
OpenOffice together with applications in the GNOME Office suite, such as
|
||
Gnumeric, GnuCash and Abiword. As LibreOffice joins the free software
|
||
community, we believe that free desktop users will benefit from a rich
|
||
set of choices."</p><p class="P2">Patrick Luby, Chief Engineer of
|
||
NeoOffice says "I am happy to see a new, independent LibreOffice
|
||
foundation to continue creating an office suite with enhanced features,
|
||
pushing OpenOffice.org in new, exciting directions". Ed Peterlin, Chief
|
||
Visionary at NeoOffice says "I am excited we will be able to continue
|
||
bringing excellent features from LibreOffice to the Mac platform. In the
|
||
future I also hope to extend our web based collaboration tools to
|
||
support LibreOffice users on all platforms".</p><p class="P2">Chris
|
||
Halls, UK Managing Director of Credativ, an independent consulting and
|
||
services company specialising in the development, implementation and
|
||
support of open source solutions: "Welcomes the foundation as an
|
||
opportunity to provide a new focus for the community contributors and
|
||
allow them to move the project forward together. In our business, we
|
||
support thousands of office desktops in many different environments. It
|
||
is vital that the feedback and code that we can contribute as part
|
||
of our day to day work can flow easily into the project".</p><p class="P2">"The
|
||
creation of The Document Foundation is in line with the vision
|
||
BrOffice.org - Projeto Brasil has for the Brazilian OpenOffice.org
|
||
community. Our country already has a large investment in the Open
|
||
Document Format and the software tools fully suporting it. BrOffice.org
|
||
and The Document Foundation share the same values and objectives and we
|
||
are more than happy to be part of it.”, says Claudio Filho, Chairman of
|
||
the BrOffice.org NGO of Brazil. </p><p class="P2">The Norwegian
|
||
foundation "Åpne kontorprogram på norsk" ("Open Office Suites In
|
||
Norwegian") is responsible for the Norwegian translation of
|
||
OpenOffice.org, and for promoting OpenOffice.org in Norway. So far the
|
||
Norwegian project has been administered and financed mainly by counties
|
||
and municipalities, but recently the foundation has started a process
|
||
for getting commercial companies more actively involved. We realise the
|
||
need for a more substantial commercial participation to establish a
|
||
long-term sustainable project. Our foundation notes that the other
|
||
Nordic countries, a majority of the European countries, as well as a
|
||
range of worldwide big companies like Google, Novell, Canonical and Red
|
||
Hat are now cooperating with The Document Foundation. We believe this is
|
||
the right way forward also for Norway. A cooperation with The Document
|
||
Foundation will make it easier to create more innovative and
|
||
user-friendly solutions integrated with the LibreOffice suite.
|
||
Eliminating license barriers and obtaining easy access to source code
|
||
and standards will facilitate further development of related and
|
||
integrated surrounding products. </p><p class="P7"><span class="T2">Additional information, including the mission, are available on the web site of The Document Foundation: </span><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20101001004502/http://www.documentfoundation.org/"><span class="T1">http://www.documentfoundation.org</span></a><span class="T1"><br></span><span class="T2">Biographies and pictures of the founding members of The Document Foundation are available here: </span><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20101001004502/http://www.documentfoundation.org/foundation/"><span class="T1">http://www.documentfoundation.org/foundation/</span></a><span class="T1"><br></span><span class="T2">There is a specific page for people interested in contributing to the development of the code: </span><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20101001004502/http://www.documentfoundation.org/contribution/"><span class="T1">http://www.documentfoundation.org/contribution/</span></a></p><p class="P7"><span class="T2">The Document Foundation has a Twitter account at </span><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20101001004502/http://twitter.com/docufoundation"><span class="T1">http://twitter.com/docufoundation</span></a><span class="T2"> and an Identi.ca account at </span><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20101001004502/http://identi.ca/docufoundation"><span class="T1">http://identi.ca/docufoundation</span></a></p><p class="P7"><span class="T2">The announcements mailing list is at </span><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20101001004502/mailto:announce+subscribe@documentfoundation.org"><span class="T1">announce+subscribe@documentfoundation.org</span></a><span class="T1"><br></span><span class="T2">The discussion mailing list is at </span><a href="https://web.archive.org/web/20101001004502/mailto:discuss+subscribe@documentfoundation.org"><span class="T1">discuss+subscribe@documentfoundation.org</span></a><span class="T1"><br></span><span class="T2">The IRC channel is #documentfoundation at irc.freenode.net</span></p><p class="P3">The Document Foundation</p><p class="P4">The
