You can download it from our website.Īpache OpenOffice 4.1.1 is a micro update with many useful and critical bugfixes including 2 security relevant fixes (details will come separately). Please contact our main development mailing list if interested.21 August 2014 - The Apache OpenOffice project is pleased to announce the immediate availability of OpenOffice 4.1.1. But we could use more help, at due time, for translations of Release Notes and press releases. We already have volunteers for the main tasks, such as updating the website and preparing the Release Notes.

In order to help, please read and contact our QA list as explained there. It is especially important for us to get coverage of all operating systems (so not only Windows, but Mac OS X and Linux too) and all languages (a few bugs are to be checked by native Chinese-Japanese-Korean speakers).

If you can volunteer some time, helping is easy: you will have to download one of our development builds, you will receive a short list of bugs from our bug tracking system and be asked to verify that they are fixed. Dozens of old and new developers contributed in recent weeks.įor users, improvements are expected in stability (fixes in all modules: Writer, Calc, Impress, Draw, Base), Microsoft interoperability (Sharepoint) and documents import.įor developers, OpenOffice 4.1.2 is designed to be easier to build on modern systems and on non-mainstream systems, thus respecting the Apache OpenOffice mission of providing a solid codebase that people can adapt and customize. Most of the code changes for OpenOffice 4.1.2 have already been integrated. Here's a quick summary of where we are at the moment. See for a list of opportunities and please contact our main development mailing list if interested. OpenOffice is driven exclusively by volunteers, and everyone is welcome to volunteer. But we still need help with some non-development tasks, like QA and final preparations (press release, release notes and their translation). Now the wait is almost over, and we are approaching the final phases before the 4.1.2 release. Born as a simple bugfix release, it became an occasion for some deep restructuring in the project: several processes have now been streamlined (and some are still in the works), new people are on board and infrastructure has been improved. A new OpenOffice update, version 4.1.2, has been in preparation for a while.
