There Is One Week To Go Until LibreOffice 5.1

Written by Michael Larabel in LibreOffice on 4 February 2016 at 07:06 AM EST. 12 Comments

LibreOffice 5.1 is scheduled to be released next week.

Among the features coming for next week's LibreOffice 5.1 release is a much faster start-up time (up to twice as fast!), improved Microsoft Office file format support, PNG export support in Calc, OpenGL transition support for Impress, menu improvements, auto-accelerator in GTK has been enabled, faster Calc performance, and many other enhancements developed over the past several months.

If you are wanting to get a better idea for the changes of LibreOffice 5.1, visit the tentative release notes via the DocumentFoundation.org Wiki. LibreOffice 5.1 is scheduled to be released next week, 10 February.
