Recently, the Document Foundation released LibreOffice 4.0.3, version presenting itself as a bug-fixes release, introducing more than 100 bug fixes.

LibreOffice 4.0.3 has landed in its official PPA, moreover, adding support for multiple Ubuntu versions, including Ubuntu 12.04 and Ubuntu 12.10.

Months ago, the LibreOffice developers started a solid work on completely changing the old LibreOffice dialogs from the currently-used classic fixed widgets (size) to a new .UI format.

Essentially, the old dialog structure renders improperly the LibreOffice dialogs, (like for example) rendering very long buttons and fields for short text pieces due to multiple factors.

LibreOffice is a powerful full-of-features free open-source office suite used by millions of people from across the world.

Along with the development of LibreOffice, the LibreOffice developers (and the overall project's team) are currently involved in helping entities (governments, state departments, schools, etc) to shift from proprietary office suites to LibreOffice.

The adoption of LibreOffice allows organizations to use a heavily-and-constantly developed office bundle that comes with support for numerous file formats, preferences, requirements and demands.

The Document Foundation has just released a new version of LibreOffice, 4.0.3, presenting itself as a bug-fixes release in the 4.0 series.

LibreOffice 4.0.3 further consolidates and strengthens the powerful LibreOffice 4.0 (released months ago with a significant amount of features).

Creating ODT documents, editing presentations, exporting documents as PDF files, are among the features currently available in LibreOffice.

In Ubuntu's development, automated tests are a common practice, automated tests allowing developers to more rapidly and accurately detect issues by stressing software against specific tasks, thus performing thousands and thousands of operations in a much more reduced period of time, as compared to manually testing software.

The Document Foundation has just announced the immediate availability of LibreOffice 3.6.6, version taking the 3.6.x LibreOffice series to a more stable, strengthened version.

Essentially, the newly-released 3.6.6 version presents itself as a bug-fixes release, suitable for both regular users and enterprises.

Among the fixes, there are:

Weeks ago, LibreOffice 4.0 stable was released, introducing a massive amount of new features, changes and enhancements, incarnating the present major stable release of the powerful open-source office suite.

Yet, it seems that the work on strengthening the 4.x series has already started, development adopted by the newly-released LibreOffice 4.0.2, too.

We are daily faced, are we not, with proprietary software used in institutions, governments, schools, state departments, etc, entities that utilize proprietary apps on a daily basis.

Yet, as we can clearly observe, in the open there are numerous applications that feature a solid, powerful set of functionalities, as well as the strength to deal with both regular and professional workflows and demands.

Recently, LibreOffice 4.0 was released, introducing new features and a solid set of improvements, optimizations and enhancements.

Yet, it seems that presently the LibreOffice developers are working on porting LibreOffice's fixed-size dialogs to optimized dialogs created with Glade.

Among the decisions behind the transition are inexistent visual editor for dialogs, inability to create mockups without supporting code, manual code implementation for actions like hiding widgets, visual wasted space with hassle-full dialog resizing, etc.

Weeks ago, LibreOffice 4.0 was released, introducing a solid pack of new features and functionalities.

Shortly after, the LibreOffice developers released LibreOffice 4.0.1, adding various improvements and enhancements, as well as solidifying interesting abilities for the powerful office suite.
