Git repository access available!

Since its beginning the lpOD project has provided regular snapshots of important milestones. Today we are happy to open the access to our Git repository! It is now possible for anyone to check out our developments live.

The repository is available here.

New documentation available online!

The new documentation for the lpOD project is available online. This online documentation is available starting with our 0.8 release and covers pretty much all that is needed to understand and hack lpOD. This documentation covers only the Python implementation, however.

You can access the documentation here.

Presentation session on the lpOD project at the OpenOffice.org Conference

lpOD has been officially introduced at the OpenOffice.org world conference to the members of the ODF ecosystem and to the Free Software office suite community.

Lots of interesting talks have taken place and the progressive integration of the project inside the ODF Toolkit Union has also been discussed.

Itaapy joins the ODF Toolkit Union

Itaapy has joined the ODF Toolkit Union. This announcement was made at the OOoCON 2009 at Orvieto and is part of the general movement of progressive integration of the lpOD project inside the ODF Toolkit Union. Bringing the lpOD platform inside the ODF Tookit will help its better integration inside the ODF ecosystem and maximize the reuse of its components by the ODF Toolkit.

lpOD v.0.7 has been released

 

The v. 0.7 version of lpOD has just been released. This is the first public version our software. Others will be released in the near future.

We do not yet accept external code contributions. However we are open to any interesting idea! You can get the code here.

 

Final countdown until the first lpOD release!

The first public release of lpOD will be available during the week of the 26th of October.  lpOD is released under the GPL v3 and the Apache v2.0 licenses. Code repository and mailing lists will be progressively rolled out during the year.

lpOD labelisé projet de Cap Digital

 

Le pôle de compétitivité Cap Digital a officiellement accordé sa labélisation  au projet lpOD le 24 avril 2008 dans la catégorie "intelligence et technologies collaboratives".

 

lpOD gathers both public and private members.

Where ?

The lpOD project is a member of the competitivity cluster Cap Digital and is thus based at the heart of the Region Île de France, the French capital region. The companies and research labs that have created the lpOD project are for the most part located in this region.

The project shall interact and work together with organisations developing the existing major implementations of ODF on the market, such as the engineering team behind OpenOffice.org and ODF. based in Hamburg, Germany.

Strongly rooted in the Paris Capital Region, the lpOD project will work on a more global level with companies, research laboraties and bodies such as the OASIS consortium in Massachusetts, U.S.A.

The project also surveys other initiatives developing tools able to generate and manipulate ODF documents.

 

 

lpOD -- languages & platforms OpenDocument.

The lpOD Project develops a set of multilanguage tools around the OpenDocument Format standard.

  • Development of a library implementing the ISO/IEC 26300 OpenDocument Format standard in extenso.
  • Development of a set of high-level APIs in the Python, Perl, Ruby languages. The project has some industrial relevance through  projects and applications in the fields of Business Intelligence (BI) , CMS applied to museography, ETL, etc.

The lpOD project gathers several private and public entities :

The whole set of deliverables under the lpOD umbrella is released under Free Software Licenses.

The lpOD project has been selected by the french National Research Agency (ANR) in its 2008 call in the category "Content & Interactions" and stems from the competitivity cluster "Cap Digital" in 2008.
