3 : Int'l Standard Document Format : ODF
It was standardized on 2005,
based on OpenOffice.org file format.
It is used for official documents on this format in some
Organizations. (e.g. Aizu-Wakamatsu city, Tokushima pref.)
Some cities in Europe have provided ODF
as standard file format.
ODF is ZIP archived XML document.
LibreOffice, Apache OpenOffice, etc. use ODF as default.
And some other softwares (include MS Office)
can read /write ODF.
Translation is available by external softwares
(e.g. Pandoc, Sphinx, etc.)

One theme of Hackfest on August 22nd
.
Procedure, Tips will introduce on future OSCs.
(We will write Seminar Presentations of these themes.)
28
Open Source Conference 2015 Kansai @ Kyoto / 2015.8.8
We recommend to set up Virtual Machines
English environment is recommended to report bug, etc.
Linux can change languages without reboot.
Modern PCs have enough performance to setup VTs.
(An Example of Bug Report)
Title : Writer crashes when push “Navigator” button
with “Gallery” opened.
Build 5.0, with Linux Mint 17.1(64bit)
(1) Open Writer
(2) Open “Gallery” from sidebar

This crashing was also represented with
both of MacOS 10.10, Windows/64bit.

Benefits from Building LibreOffice
As increasing people who can build LibreOffice,
we will get benefits written below :
Procedure to build will be easier than current version.
Tools easily obtainable will be ruled.
Automated configuration, setup, etc.
Customized by people who can read sources.
Much characterization will be realized on each distributions.
