Weblog:   Opening the potential of OpenOffice.org
Subject:   KOffice

There's still a lot of effort going into KOffice, you know. The 1.4.2 release is coming out soon, with improvements to the vector app and to the pixel app, and 1.5 is scheduled for end of January 2006. That will include for the first time true cmyk and 16-bit channel support in the pixel app, Krita, and a host of other improvements to Karbon and the other applications. And KOffice supports OpenDocument, too.


Even though the filters for MS documents aren't as good as OpenOffice's documents, many people are quite happy using an office app that gives you the application before OpenOffice gives you its splash screen (to quote the Linux Format review of KOffice 1.4.0).


And you know what? Hacking KOffice is actually fun!
