Here we present the 2019-version of our LibreOffice growth infoGraphic with many interesting figures.
We hope you will find them interesting and attractive and that the format is convenient to share.
We notice that the Online version is increasingly popular! It is the easy way to test and engage with “Collabora Online Development Edition” (CODE). This version, also for ‘home’ use (details here), currently has over 10 million Docker image pulls! Also this year, we are the top code contributors to LibreOffice with 5986 code commits.
Of course we are extremely grateful for all partners and customers working with us to make this possible!
Many numbers are again up. Would you like to see the previous versions; these are here: 2018, 2017, 2016, 2015, & 2014.
Soon there will be the LibreOffice Conference 2019 (September 10 to September 13), where you can meet our developers and attend one of the many interesting talks.
So.. check out the updated LibreOffice growth infoGraphic on 2019 here:
On March 12th from 8am to 5pm, Nextcloud hold their annual Enterprise Day in the Congress Centrum Liederhalle in the center of Stuttgart, Germany. Participants will enjoy a day of strategic sessions, presentations, learning from different enterprise case studies and best practices on the Nextcloud platform.
During the Nextcloud Enterprise Day, Collabora Productivity’s General Manager Michael Meeks will give a talk about how Collabora Online integrates into Nextcloud.
Collabora Online is an on-premise open source software component based on LibreOffice, that can be easily integrated into any web application, and which enables viewing and collaborative editing of Office documents in dozens of file formats. This provides an easy-to-deploy office suite that runs directly in any modern browser, on any device.
On 19th October 2018, at Welle7 Workspace in Bern, Switzerland, we attended DINAcon – the conference on digital sustainability. Our General Manager, Michael Meeks, had a talk about “How best to migrate to LibreOffice”, where he explained the best ways to move to a supported Open Source and Open Standards solution. Also, he talked about Collabora’s latest work with our partners, and our new tool to migrate existing legacy Visual Basic line of business apps.
If you missed his talk then check out the slides above for the complete presentation:

Hacknight
The conference ended with the hacknight and of course that we couldn’t miss it. It was the perfect time to work on LibreOffice bugs. 🙂

This year the LibreOffice Conference was held in Tirana, Albania from September 25 to September 28, 2018. As a tradition, all our team was there and gave several talks.
Sept. 25th: Tuesday – Team building day
The special Collabora team-building event happened just before the LibreOffice Conference, on Tuesday, September 25, 2018! In the sunny city of Tirana, we played an exciting Stand-up paddling game, learned more about the history of Albania by visiting the National Museum and then we had a relaxing lunch in a traditional restaurant in Tirana.
Sept. 26th: Wednesday – First day
The first day of the LibreOffice conference started! Marina Latini and Italo Vignoli welcomed us at this edition of LibOCon, three days full of interesting presentations. Also, we had the mayor of Tirana, Erion Veliaj, who gave a warm welcome to everyone at the city of Tirana. He shared the progress done by the Municipality of Tirana by implementing open source software.
We are thrilled to be the largest code-committer this year (with 5302 code commits), alongside Red Hat and the community!
Collabora was again this year a proud sponsor of the conference and Michael had a presentation regarding the involvement Collabora has with LibreOffice! 🙂
In the evening it was the time for the community dinner that took place at Brauhaus. A very lovely evening that we spent enjoying the delicious food under the company of the friendly LibreOffice community. At the end of the dinner, we had a surprise for everyone – we celebrated our 5th anniversary!
Say hello to the LibreOffice community! Here's our group photo from our conference in Tirana. Help us to spread the word about free software and open standards! #LiboCon18#libreofficepic.twitter.com/EjDlXXmTSu
And we came to the end of the conference, celebrating the birthday of LibreOffice and announcing the next city where will be hosted LibOCon!
Even this year LibOCon was a great event. Kudos to the organizing team for their great job!
See you soon in Almeria, Spain!
