AbiWord v2.6.0 released

[Posted March 31, 2008 by corbet]

AbiWord 2.6.0 is out. See the release notes for a long list of new features, including wider language support, Gnumeric integration, collaborative real-time editing and, inevitably, an OOXML import filter.

The collaborative real time editing is very impressive. We used the XMPP back-end.

Not to sound like \., but from TFA (or the F. release notes....):

AbiWord added support for ODF in 2.4.0, back in 2005.
