Collabora Online developer edition 22.05 released

[Posted June 29, 2022 by corbet]

CODE 22.05 has been released; this is the "developer edition" of the Collabora Online offering formerly known as LibreOffice Online.

CODE 22.05 is preceding the next major release of our long-term supported business suite Collabora Online. This free developer version includes all features and enhancements that will be available in our enterprise version, expected later in July. The CODE releases allow every interested user to learn and test new features on an early stage.

New features include support for external grammar checkers, the ability to have 16,000 columns in a spreadsheet (which is evidently useful to somebody), sparkline plots, support for WebP graphics, and more.

Congrats to the team! I wasn't aware that this was open source, so I'm pretty excited. Collabora seems to be doing some really great work.

Hey - glad you like it =) we're working hard - and its really starting to come together as a viable Office 365 alternative: we beat O365 in the browser using its own formats head to head in many ways already. No file-format concerns when sharing documents with others there either, and all code is of course Open Source =)

Would really appreciate advice from some Linux-Kernel experts on how best to quickly build our (rather spartan) containers too - we dlopen, pre-init and then fork children to save as much time & space as possible which works well, but insights on doing better much appreciated as always.
