LibreOffice Server Install GUI 3.0

Linz (Austria) – Reisisoft releases LibreOffice Server Install GUI 3.0

LibreOffice Server Install GUI v3.0 is an exciting release. It has a whole set of new features, some of them have been inspired by Harald Köster, who presented a list of 15! Items; HK means “inspired by Harald Köster”. So, let’s skip the quotations of people who made this possible and just list them up.

• Translators:
  • Da – Leif Lodahl
  • Es – Adolfo Jayme Barrientos
  • Fr – Sophie Gautier
  • He – Yaron Shahrabani
  • Pt – Carlos Moreira
  • Sl – Martin Srebotnjak

Without the work of you the software would not be that great

So, now I am going to reveal the new features. If something is not working as excepted, feel free to mail me, leave a comment or (preferred) submitting a bug on GitHub:

• With this version, downloading the latest master is possible again (There has been a change in the link on the LibreOffice side)
• Added a header to the built-in downloader. Hopefully I am going to get some statistics from the LibreOffice side….
• Version of the GUI can be determined now ( HK#4 )
• Hopefully it is now clear, what “Should a subfolder be created automatically” should mean… (HK#8)
• Shortcuts pointing to the soffice.exe of the last parallel installation can be created ( HK#10)
• Manager added ( HK #15 )
  • Parallel installations can be deleted with the manager ( HK#13)

I really hope that this program will help you to enjoy testing the 4.1 master and the 4.0 beta1 of LibreOffice.

Yours sincerely,

Florian Reisinger (Programmer and coordinator)

LibreOffiice is doing a great job !

At Italo’s blog  I heard a complain: Why has LibreOffice so much more contributors, but still “new” features are lacking. New features are important, you can’t change everything now. Have a look at this PDF file ( also by Italo). An online version is planned, one for Android and one for iOS, with LibreOffice a variety of feature tweaks were announced ( One of them is a little bit tricky). So why,, why YOU should blame LibreOffice. Learn C++ and go ahead. Make a new UI, get criticised by some people, some other might give you a helping hand, but radical changes have a bad side too:

• You have a lot of work programming a new UI
• Your work might never be accepted, very often you have to do a lot of changes…
• Even if I repeat myself: You really have to be able to take criticism.

So LibreOffice does, all in all, good work. I exclusively prepared an Updated Version of the (rather unpopular) NO Comments diagram:

NO COMMENT Update:15/03/2012

Compared to the number of releases, LibreOffice, or the Team around LibreOffice does a very great job. BTW: Today ( and I have included this) LibreOffice 3.5.1 has been announced. THAT is what WE wanted: We, all of us, are doing a very great job and if you do not think like this there are a few ways possible:

• Use OpenOffice, which current stable version lacks some security patches
• Improve LibreOffice, so it suits your purpose
• Start coding your own Suite
• Buy MS Office ( $ 119,99 – $ 499,99 )
• Or think about it a second time and use LibreOffice
