LibreOffice 4.0.3 [31011]
For Windows, OS X and Linux,
The Document Foundation (TDF) has released LibreOffice 4.0.3, for Windows, OS X and Linux, the third minor release of LibreOffice 4.0 family. OS X Intel packages are now signed by The Document Foundation, to pass OS X Gatekeeper security without user intervention.
In the meantime, another large migration to LibreOffice has been announced, as the government of Spain's autonomous region of Extremadura has just begun the switch to free software of desktop PCs and expects the majority of its 40,000 PCs to be migrated by the end of 2013. Extremadura estimates that the move to open source including LibreOffice will help save 30 million Euro per year.
Community is growing too. After the success of the LibreOffice Impress Sprint in Germany, it is now the turn of the first LibreOffice Bay Area Meetup. It will take place on May 11, 2013 starting at 2pm in the Hacker Dojo in Mountain View, California. Bjoern Michaelsen will be there for some good Q&A, and most importantly for some hands-on work on how to get involved in the project, with Simon Phipps keynoting about 'Foundations and Empires'.

TDF White Paper Aids Migrations to LibreOffice [30337]
Outlines Comprehensive Change Management Process
The Document Foundation (TDF) has released the "LibreOffice Migration White Paper," a guide for enterprises wishing to adopt LibreOffice and other free software. The guide is framed in terms of dealing with both the technical aspects of such a migration and the resistance often encountered in the work force when long-term working habits are challenged. Developed in Open Document Format (ODF), LibreOffice is the standard document format recognized by the largest number of organizations and supported by the largest number of desktop software solutions. Legacy investments are thereby protected even as enterprises undertake migration to ODF.
