KOffice 1.5 Released

ingwa writes to tell us that the KOffice team has released version 1.5 which offers, among other things, default OpenDocument file format, new project planning tool KPlato, professional color support and adjustment layers in Krita and the long awaited Kexi 1.0. From the announcement: "KOffice was the first office suite that announced support for OpenDocument and now the second to announce it as the default file format after OpenOffice.org. This makes KOffice a member of a very select group and will lead to new deployment opportunities. Great care has been taken to ensure interoperability with other office software that also use OpenDocument."

    As long as they keep giving their software stupid names by sticking a "k" or a "g" on the front of it this software will never appeal to anyone but the Linux zealots (a.k.a. "Power" users).

    I'm thinking that deep down inside the open source movement doesn't really want to become mainstream or appeal to the Joe Sixpacks in the world for fear of losing their perceived superiority.

    Our PhD students always run into problems with MS Word when they work on their dissertations.

    Maybe they are retarded.


    As the document grows larger, more and more weird things happen: footnotes jump around, images move to other pages, tables get resized for no apparent reason, and so on. Blame your students and RTFM.

    1 - the K makes sence. So you know its a KDE compliant app. How hard is it to understand that.
    2 - you are an idiot and need to go away
    3 - you are an idiot and need to go away
