Re: Project focused on adding missing functionality to LibreOffice.
Hi, yes, I think it's a big project , so far I don't even know if it's feasible . Unfortunately I can not reveal the budget - it would weaken my negotiating position with potential contractors.

How? Microsoft failed to maintain compatibility between next versions of MS Office and you say you're gonna do it with LO? I'm facing incompatibilities each day opening doc/docx documents on different versions of MS Office not to mention LO. Macros are not the biggest problem when simple two page document isn't presented similarly on one system.

Project focused on adding missing functionality to LibreOffice.
Dear Developers I would like to ask if someone would be interested in taking part in a project focused on adding missing functionality to LibreOffice. I wanted to ask if anyone of you have already dealt with, or is in the process of work on the following issues. Any information will be extremely useful: - Ability to work on documents created in Microsoft Word 2003 or Microsoft Word 2007 and 2010, with reliable conversion of all elements and attributes of the document - a lot has been done already. - Recording a narration and adding it to a presentation. - Creating reports based on external data sources (spreadsheets, databases, ODBC-compliant, text files, XML, webservice) - partially requirements are met, except for XML and webservice. - Support for OLAP cubes, performing, editing database and web queries. Tools to support statistical, financial, analysis of alternatives and solving optimization issues - requirements partly met, there is a solver. - Maintaining full compatibility with the file formats created in Microsoft Excel 2003, 2007 and 2010, including the correct application of special functions and macros - a lot has already been done, macros are the biggest problem. - Using mail merge in Draw.
