Restructuring a giant, ancient codebase to make LibreOffice work well everywhere
Thank you for sharing this article. Speaking personally, it comes at a great time. I&#x27;ve been toying with the idea of getting involved in open source, and was particularly interested in pushing forward open source office suites.<p>Something that I&#x27;m particularly interested in with LibreOffice is helping the core being decoupled from the UI, to both help with portability and to speed up the rate of UI innovation. I had thought that I may have to start by myself, but based on this article it seems that the current LibreOffice developers are thinking along similar lines.<p>If any LibreOffice developers are reading this, are there any sub teams setup that may be a good fit? To give some idea of my background, I would describe myself as a tester that knows how to code (not in C++ alas, but I&#x27;m familiar enough with debugging at a low level).
