@AngelaScholder Why? Independent volunteers will add features and improvements to LibreOffice, and everything is open source for all to benefit from.

Depends on the involvement of Google.

@AngelaScholder We choose the projects. Please read this to learn more: wiki.documentfoundation.org/De…

@AngelaScholder And why do you need Google to organize this?

@hans @AngelaScholder We don't "need" them. But we're not going to arbitrarily reject open source code patches from volunteers, which greatly improve LibreOffice for all users, because those volunteers get some financial help to work on the open source code patches.

@AngelaScholder Don’t mean to annoy you, just try to understand: so these volunteers get financial help from Google?

@christianschwaegerl Yes, really! Independent volunteers will add features and improvements to LibreOffice, and everything is open source for all to benefit from.
