Why? Schleswig-Holstein cites cost, security, and digital sovereignty - though not necessarily in that order.
The German state of Schleswig-Holstein has decided to migrate 30,000 computers from Microsoft products to Linux and LibreOffice.
The latest version of popular open-source office suite LibreOffice is here, but its release number may surprise those expecting to see LibreOffice 7.7. Instead, LibreOffice 24.2 makes its bow as developer The Document Foundation switches to a new date-based version numbering system.
A brand new version of free, open-source office suite LibreOffice is ready to download. LibreOffice 24.2 is the follow up to last year's LibreOffice 7.6
Ahead of the planned release at the start of February, the release candidate of LibreOffice 24.2 is now available for this leading free software office suite to rival Microsoft Office predominantly on Linux systems as well as other platforms.
