Good to know, I wonder which version of Libre Office they are using as the base line.

That's nice to know. Looks like Warp3D is finally close.

I had no idea that they were so far along with converting Libre Office. To have this product is a bit like having Timberwolf - it opens up the Amiga to being far more useful for day to day work.

Looking forward to 3D - finally!.

OK, now we know what two major pre OS 4.2 news will be - fully functional RadeonHD drivers and Office suite (finally!)

They AREN'T far along. The "75%" figure is a bit misleading if you don't carefully read it: They are 75% of the way to compiling the first executable. (Which will most definitely crash before it get's far. They then have a long road to stopping it crashing & getting all the parts to work.)

The news is really good but don't expect miracle (almost on first stage) even when compiled and ported still to see the real usability of the final package .. i'm expecting the same issues we already saw in Timberwolf and QT programs .. of course i hope to be wrong but past experience ...

Surely, OO is biggest AmigaNG port so far, but one step at the time

I am very happy with this! This is what I need, and what I've been waiting for ever since the X1000 came out.

This is great news and I also believe that hard work should be rewarded just like the Timberwolf donation system.

Very nice indeed !

Did i read somewhere that it is planned to be sold?? Or was that a dream? I'd certainly donate for that project.

I doubt it can sold, Libre Office is LGPLv3, nothing stopping you donating though. If there is no official way to donate you could always donate to timberwolf and add a note saying it's a libre office donation.

No expert, but found this on their site...

Yeah, I found that too, doesn't mention that you're free to sell it, but then the whole point of GNU was that it is always free and if you used anything from any GNU project you weren't allowed to sell it and had to provide the source which no company is going to do.

I've not tried libre Office yet, might fire up linux and have a play with it as it comes pre-installed on the X1000 debian setup.

I won't donate for a possible "libre office" projekt. But I will pay for a ready and full useable libre office software. If I would pay (donate) before it's ready we may be become a software which is not really useable like timberwolf.

There are no bounties (donations) open, its fully sponsored by A-EON and assumable, will be paid as fully usable Office once done (hopefully some time this year)
