Group:OpenOfficeExtensions/List

This is an all-free-software list of extensions for both OpenOffice.org and LibreOffice applications.

The Apache OpenOffice.org extensions repository offers add-ons, dictionaries and other packages to extend OpenOffice.org with additional features. While the OpenOffice.org application is free software, the Apache OpenOffice.org extensions repository lists proprietary extensions as well as free software ones. Most extensions work with both LibreOffice and OpenOffice.org applications. This is the repository that the OpenOffice.org program uses by default.

The LibreOffice extensions repository only includes extensions published using free software licenses. This is the repository that the LibreOffice program uses by default.

The free software listing below is maintained by contributors to the LibrePlanet wiki. This listing is independent of the LibreOffice and the Apache OpenOffice.org extensions repository listings.

Please see Group:OpenOfficeExtensions for more information about the listing, how use it, and how to contribute.
