Dear Amit, dear Regis, lets please keep this list focused on technical developer discussions, so that means - discuss the code, not the market. Outreach, positioning of the product & success stories - that's on-topic on e.g. the marketing list

Re: Hi (Formats supported by LibreOffice).

> Why is LO focussing on both MS formats and ODF? The answer is very simple: The people developing it are focussing (to some extent) on that, because that is what they want to work on. Or what their customers pay them to work on. There is no central LO organisation that would decide what others

Hi, The summary of my opinions is this: Why is LO focussing on both MS formats and ODF? By focusing on both formats, it is not producing very good software in either of these. It should focus on only one format so that it can do a much better job. I am saying all this because LO is run by

HI Amit, OnlyOffice works in that way. It is supposed to provide Office compatibility... It's far from being perfect. I really think the best way is to use a format designed for interoperability, well documented, stable, all that OOXML is not. ATB Régis Perdreau Le mer. 23 mars 2022 à 08:12,

Hi (Formats supported by LibreOffice).

Hi, I am a software engineer. I have a Masters degree in Computer Networking from NCSU, NC, USA. I was thinking that why does LibreOffice support document formats other than that of Microsoft Office? Windows run on around 90% of personal computers in this world. Mac's share is around 5% and
