Want to learn how to run a nonprofit free and open source foundation? I've shared some insight gained over the past 15 years at https://community.documentfoundation.org/tags/c/board-discuss/26/training

Happy Birthday, The Document Foundation, the nonprofit home of #LibreOffice. 14 years ago, the entity was incorporated in Berlin. It provides a safe, stable, enduring and independent home to the leading free office suite and all the fantastic people contributing to it.

Conference year is slowly starting. First destination early February: FOSDEM in Brussels where LibreOffice will have a booth, and lots of side events will take place. No speaking commitment for me, but I‘m working on some new talks and presentations for upcoming events.

Auf dem Weg nach Berlin zur DigitalPlus-Konferenz, auf der ich #LibreOffice und The Document Foundation vorstellen werde

Finally started to play with Home Assistant. I already like it a lot!

Congratulations to the TDF Board of Directors for putting in place the Community Bylaws. These are a very important milestone in our foundation's governance, ensuring stability, safety and independence at the home of #LibreOffice

Open source communities bring many talents together, and every aspect plays an important role and is equally important for its success. Read more about in the recent blogpost from Italo https://blog.documentfoundation.org/blog/2026/04/07/our-sense-of-meritocracy/

The best feature about the new #Thunderbird version is „Read folders are now removed from Unread Folders view“. Thanks a bunch for that!

Mein Vortrag zu #LibreOffice auf der DigitalPlus-Konferenz in Berlin steht jetzt unter https://effenberger.org/vortraege/ online

Seit einigen Tagen scheint das Peering eines großen deutschen Providers zu einem großen CDN-Anbieter richtig grottig geworden zu sein. 🙄

E-mails from big companies with a link „Want to escalate to my manager? Click here!“ What a horrible management style and distrust in employees. I wonder if anyone really thinks this is a sensible thing to do.

Seems MikroTik has released an LTS version of RouterOS 7. 7.20.7 is now offered alongside 6.49.18

DHL Express stellt hier regelmäßig Sendungen an eine Packstation oder Postfiliale in einen völlig anderen, mehrere Kilometer entfernten Stadtteil zu, obwohl es auf dem Weg von der ursprünglichen Packstation mehrere Optionen gibt. Was soll der Mist?

Jemand meiner Follower zufällig Kontakte zur #Telekom? Die Frage, welche Gebiete hier in Kaufbeuren/Allgäu „ab 2027“ Glasfaser erhalten sollen, scheint ein gut gehütetes Geheimnis zu sein. Vielleicht kann mir hier ja jemand, bei Bedarf auch vertraulich, genauere Infos geben.

Freu mich sehr, wieder beim Podcast von GNU/Linux.ch dabei zu sein - hat Spaß gemacht! https://gnulinux.ch/ciw178-podcast
