A new LibreOffice strategic marketing plan

([Development] Jul 15, 2020 22:09 UTC (Wed) (corbet))


LWN recently [1]covered the effort within the LibreOffice project to find ways to support the companies doing the bulk of the development work. The project has now posted [2]a revised marketing plan [PDF] with a number of changes, including the removal of the "personal edition" name. Regarding LibreOffice Online: " Following our normal development process, the Ecosystem will release their own versions in their own timing, allowing some features to reach their Enterprise versions before they are subsequently shipped in TDF builds (this allows the Ecosystem to positively differentiate by contributing new features & functionality) ".

Imagine if every Thursday your shoes exploded if you tied them the usual
way. This happens to us all the time with computers, and nobody thinks of
complaining.
