How would peer-to-peer collaboration work in #LibreOffice? Our Design community has been exploring ideas and working on mockups: design.blog.documentfoundation… #foss #opensource #p2p


Thunderbird 128 'Nebula' is out and our blog post has all the details! With Rust under the hood, a clearer Cards View, and a sharper (and more colorful) look, the future is looking fast, organized, and bright. See what's new, what's coming soon, and details on how to try it for yourself!

We're getting closer and closer to #LibreOffice 24.8, our next major release – due in late August! The first Release Candidate is now available for testing: qa.blog.documentfoundation.org… #foss #opensource #news



Stay up-to-date! ☀️ #LibreOffice 24.2.5 is our latest release, with bugfixes and compatibility improvements: blog.documentfoundation.org/bl… #foss #opensource


I would love to encourage y'all #GUADEC attendees to use the "Download" button from the event's Indico platform (that button is in each event's details page) to use it directly in #GNOMECalendar, but… it turns out that you'd run into this silly timezones bug where the event importer dialog considers UTC times to be the local time 🤦

So… can I motivate someone to send a merge request for gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/gnome-c… ? This would be timely for #GNOME's main conference next week 😉

Oh, and I love these colorful wallpapers (amazing work from @jimmac yet again!). They pair so nicely! I didn’t have to download anything to change up the look—each screenshot was just two or three clicks.

— Them: “Please test #GNOMECalendar's sidebar again”
— Me, coming back from another round of testing: “Code’s haunted”
— Them: “What?”
— Me, loading a pistol and getting back to the bug tracker: “Code’s haunted”

My favorite new thing by far is accent colors. It’s so nice and refreshing to be able to really change the feel of your computer with just a few well-defined options—all while not introducing a massive burden to third-party app developers.

I’m most excited to see more apps incorporate the accent color in interesting ways, as it’s a great way to pull the user’s preferences into the app.

I’m really loving what’s coming in GNOME 47! It’s shaping up to be such a good polish release, and it keeps getting better. Huge props to all the folks who’ve been plugging away at the design and entire stack this cycle.

I'm looking forward to meeting up with folks next week in Denver for them to share more about their work this cycle and to hack on any last touches—plus planning what’s next. Join us in-person or remotely! guadec.org

The annual Tidelift maintainer survey is open for responses. It gets cited *all the time*—there really aren't many other sources for understanding of why maintainers do (or don't do) the things they do.

So please circulate widely in all the places you and your #opensource #FOSS maintainer friends hang out.
