[tdf-announce] Announcement of LibreOffice 24.2.5 Community, optimized for the privacy-conscious user

Berlin, 11 July 2024 - LibreOffice 24.2.5 Community, the fifth minor 
release of the free, volunteer-supported office productivity suite for 
office environments and individuals, the best choice for 
privacy-conscious users and digital sovereignty, is available at 
https://www.libreoffice.org/download for Windows, macOS and Linux.

The release includes more than 70 bug and regression fixes over 
LibreOffice 24.2.4 [1] to improve the stability and robustness of the 
software, as well as interoperability with legacy and proprietary 
document formats. LibreOffice 24.2.5 Community is the most advanced 
version of the office suite and is aimed at power users but can be used 
safely in other environments.

LibreOffice is the only office suite with a feature set comparable to 
the market leader. It also offers a range of interface options to suit 
all users, from traditional to modern Microsoft Office-style, and makes 
the most of different screen form factors by optimising the space 
available on the desktop to put the maximum number of features just a 
click or two away.

LibreOffice for Enterprises

For enterprise-class deployments, TDF strongly recommends the 
LibreOffice Enterprise family of applications from ecosystem partners - 
for desktop, mobile and cloud - with a range of dedicated value-added 
features, long term support and other benefits such as SLAs:

Every line of code developed by ecosystem companies for enterprise 
customers is shared with the community on the master code repository and 
contributes to the improvement of the LibreOffice Technology platform. 
All products based on that platform share the same approach, optimised 
for the privacy-conscious user.

Availability of LibreOffice 24.2.5 Community

LibreOffice 24.2.4 Community is available at 
https://www.libreoffice.org/download/. Minimum requirements for 
proprietary operating systems are Microsoft Windows 7 SP1 and Apple 
macOS 10.15. Products based on LibreOffice Technology for Android and 
iOS are listed here: https://www.libreoffice.org/download/android-and-ios/

For users who don't need the latest features and prefer a version that 
has undergone more testing and bug fixing, The Document Foundation 
maintains a version with some months of back-ported fixes. The current 
release is has reached the end of life, so users should update to 
LibreOffice 24.2.5 when the new major release LibreOffice 24.8 becomes 
available in August.

The Document Foundation does not provide technical support for users, 
although they can get it from volunteers on user mailing lists and the 
Ask LibreOffice website: https://ask.libreoffice.org

LibreOffice users, free software advocates and community members can 
support the Document Foundation by making a donation at
