After ten years’ successful growth > with Sun Microsystems as founding and principle sponsor, the project launches > an independent foundation called "The Document Foundation", to fulfil the > promise of independence written in the original charter. > > The Foundation will be the cornerstone of a new ecosystem where individuals > and organisations can contribute to and benefit from the availability of a > truly free office suite. It will generate increased competition and choice > for the benefit of customers and drive innovation in the office suite > market. From now on, the OpenOffice.org community will be known as "The > Document Foundation". > > Oracle, who acquired OpenOffice.org assets as a result of its acquisition of > Sun Microsystems, has been invited to become a member of the new Foundation, > and donate the brand the community has grown during the past ten years. > Pending this decision, the brand "LibreOffice" has been chosen for the > software going forward. > > The Document Foundation is the result of a collective effort by leading > independent members of the OpenOffice.org community, including several > project leads and key members of the Community Council. It will be led > initially by a Steering Committee of developers and national language > projects managers. The Foundation aims to lower the barrier of adoption for > both users and developers, to make LibreOffice the most accessible office > suite ever. > > The Foundation will coordinate and oversee the development of LibreOffice, > which is available in beta version at the placeholder site: > http://www.libreoffice.org. Developers are invited to join the project and > contribute to the code in the new friendly and open environment, to shape the > future of office productivity suites alongside contributors who translate, > test, document, support, and promote the software. > > Speaking for the group of volunteers, Sophie Gautier - a veteran of the > community and the former maintainer of the French speaking language project - > has declared: "We believe that the Foundation is a key step for the evolution > of the free office suite, as it liberates the development of the code and the > evolution of the project from the constraints represented by the commercial > interests of a single company. Free software advocates around the world have > the extraordinary opportunity of joining the group of founding members today, > to write a completely new chapter in the history of FLOSS". > > FSF President Richard Stallman welcomed LibreOffice release and it's stated > policy of only recommending free software. "I'm very pleased that the > Document Foundation will not recommend nonfree add-ons, since they are the > main freedom problem of the current OpenOffice.org. I hope that the > LibreOffice developers and the Oracle-employed developers of OpenOffice will > be able to cooperate on development of the body of the code". > > "The Document Foundation supports the Open Document Format, and is keen to > work at OASIS to the next evolution of the ISO standard", says Charles > Schulz, member of the Community Council and lead of the Native Language > Confederation. "The Document Foundation brings to the table the point of view > of developers, supporters and users, and this might accelerate the adoption > process of ODF at government and enterprise level". > > Chris DiBona, Open Source Programs Manager at Google, Inc., has commented: > "The creation of The Document Foundation is a great step forward in > encouraging further development of open source office suites. Having a level > playing field for all contributors is fundamental in creating a broad and > active community around an open source software project. Google is proud to > be a supporter of The Document Foundation and participate in the project". > > "Viva la LibreOffice", said Guy Lunardi, product management Director at > Novell. "We look forward to working with the Document Foundation to help > develop a solid open source document software offering. Ultimately, we > envision LibreOffice do for the office productivity market what Mozilla > Firefox has done for browsers". > > Jan Wildeboer, EMEA Open Source Affairs at Red Hat, has commented: "All over > the world, users, companies and governments are moving to innovative > technology solutions based on Open Standards. Red Hat is proud to join this > effort". > > Mark Shuttleworth, founder and major shareholder of Canonical, the makers of > Ubuntu, has declared: "Office productivity software is a critical component > of the free software desktop, and the Ubuntu Project will be pleased to ship > LibreOffice from The Document Foundation in future releases of Ubuntu. The > Document Foundation's stewardship of LibreOffice provides Ubuntu developers > an effective forum for collaboration around the code that makes Ubuntu an > effective solution for the desktop in office environments". > > "The Open Source Initiative has observed a trend back towards open > collaborative communities for open source software", said Simon Phipps, a > Director of the Open Source Initiative. "We welcome The Document Foundation > initiative and look forward to the innovation it is able to drive with a > truly open community gathered around a free software commons, in the spirit > of the best of open source software". > > "We welcome the LibreOffice project to the free software community as we > believe there is a great opportunity for them to enrich the free desktop > experience." says Stormy Peters, Executive Director of the GNOME Foundation. > "Over the years the GNOME community has been supportive of OpenOffice > together with applications in the GNOME Office suite, such as Gnumeric, > GnuCash and Abiword. As LibreOffice joins the free software community, we > believe that free desktop users will benefit from a rich set of choices." > > Patrick Luby, Chief Engineer of NeoOffice says "I am happy to see a new, > independent LibreOffice foundation to continue creating an office suite with > enhanced features, pushing OpenOffice.org in new, exciting directions". Ed > Peterlin, Chief Visionary at NeoOffice says "I am excited we will be able to > continue bringing excellent features from LibreOffice to the Mac platform. In > the future I also hope to extend our web based collaboration tools to support > LibreOffice users on all platforms". > > Chris Halls, UK Managing Director of Credativ, an independent consulting and > services company specialising in the development, implementation and support > of open source solutions: "Welcomes the foundation as an opportunity to > provide a new focus for the community contributors and allow them to move the > project forward together. In our business, we support thousands of office > desktops in many different environments. It is vital that the feedback and > code that we can contribute as part of our day to day work can flow easily > into the project". > > "The creation of The Document Foundation is in line with the vision > BrOffice.org - Projeto Brasil has for the Brazilian OpenOffice.org community. > Our country already has a large investment in the Open Document Format and > the software tools fully suporting it. BrOffice.org and The Document > Foundation share the same values and objectives and we are more than happy to > be part of it.”, says Claudio Filho, Chairman of the BrOffice.org NGO of > Brazil. > > The Norwegian foundation "Åpne kontorprogram på norsk" ("Open Office Suites > In Norwegian") is responsible for the Norwegian translation of > OpenOffice.org, and for promoting OpenOffice.org in Norway. So far the > Norwegian project has been administered and financed mainly by counties and > municipalities, but recently the foundation has started a process for getting > commercial companies more actively involved. We realise the need for a more > substantial commercial participation to establish a long-term sustainable > project. Our foundation notes that the other Nordic countries, a majority of > the European countries, as well as a range of worldwide big companies like > Google, Novell, Canonical and Red Hat are now cooperating with The Document > Foundation. We believe this is the right way forward also for Norway. A > cooperation with The Document Foundation will make it easier to create more > innovative and user-friendly solutions integrated with the LibreOffice suite. > Eliminating license barriers and obtaining easy access to source code and > standards will facilitate further development of related and integrated > surrounding products. > > Additional information, including the mission, are available on the web site > of The Document Foundation: http://www.documentfoundation.org > Biographies and pictures of the founding members of The Document Foundation > are available here: http://www.documentfoundation.org/foundation/ > There is a specific page for people interested in contributing to the > development of the code: http://www.documentfoundation.org/contribution/ > > The Document Foundation has a Twitter account at > http://twitter.com/docufoundation and an Identi.ca account at > http://identi.ca/docufoundation > > The announcements mailing list is at [email protected] > The discussion mailing list is at [email protected] > The IRC channel is #documentfoundation at irc.freenode.net > > The Document Foundation > > The Document Foundation is an independent self-governing democratic > Foundation created by leading members of the OpenOffice.org Community.
