announce
#1

Berlin, September 13, 2018 – The Document Foundation announces
LibreOffice 6.1.1, targeted at early adopters, technology enthusiasts
and power users, which provides over 120 bug and regression fixes for
the recently announced LibreOffice 6.1.

LibreOffice users can benefit from some of the interesting new features
introduced in August:

• Colibre, the new icon theme for Windows based on Microsoft's icon
design guidelines;
• The reworked image handling feature, which is significantly faster and
smoother thanks to a new graphic manager and an improved image lifecycle;
• The reorganization of Draw menus with the addition of a new Page menu;
• The new Online Help pages enriched with text and example files to
guide the users through features;
• Several improvements to all modules of LibreOffice Online, with
changes to the user interface to make it more appealing.

Enterprise deployments

LibreOffice 6.1.1 represents the bleeding edge in term of features for
open source office suites, and as such is targeted at technology
enthusiasts, early adopters and power users.

For any enterprise class deployment, TDF maintains the more mature
LibreOffice 6.0.6, which should be sourced from a company providing a
Long Term Supported version of the suite (they are all members of TDF
Advisory Board, and are listed here:
https://www.documentfoundation.org/governance/advisory-board/).

Also, value-added services for migrations and trainings, to support
enterprise class deployments in large organizations, should be sourced
from certified professionals (list available here:
https://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/professional-support/).

LibreOffice is deployed by large organizations in every continent. A
list of some large or significant migrations announced in the media is
available on the TDF wiki:

Availability of LibreOffice 6.1.1

LibreOffice 6.1.1 is immediately available from the following link:
https://www.libreoffice.org/download/. Minimum requirements for
proprietary operating systems are Microsoft Windows 7 SP1 and Apple
macOS 10.9. Builds of the latest LibreOffice Online source code are
available as Docker images: https://hub.docker.com/r/libreoffice/online/.

LibreOffice Online is fundamentally a server service, and should be
installed and configured by adding cloud storage and an SSL certificate.
It might be considered an enabling technology for the cloud services
offered by ISPs or the private cloud of enterprises and large organizations.
