LibreOffice 4 Released

Posted by timothy on from the whole-numbers-is-best-numbers dept.

Titus Andronicus writes "LibreOffice 4.0.0 has been released. Some of the changes are for developers: an improved API, a new graphics stack, migrating German code comments to English, and moving from Apache 2.0 to LGPLv3 & MPLv2. Some user-facing changes are: better interoperability with other software, some functional & UI improvements, and some performance gains."

  1. But what if Java is the next WAIS? by Archeopteryx · · Score: 1, Troll

    I think the issue that needs to be faced is that it seems likely that Java is dead. As such, it seems unlikely to me that the interpreter will be maintained for much longer.

    What are the options for a project like LibreOffice?

      Yep, malware authors are loving it. It's become quite the easy way to exploit 10s of millions of computers.
