The Document Foundation announced that FLOSS/fund, the grant program funded by Indian brokerage Zerodha with up to $1 million a year for free software, contributed $100,000 to LibreOffice. The foundation said the money will help improve infrastructure, pay developers to work on the software, and organize knowledge-sharing events, and FLOSS/fund’s Kailash Nadh called LibreOffice one of the most consequential FOSS projects and credited it with helping drive Linux desktop adoption. LibreOffice is volunteer-driven and backed by the non-profit Document Foundation, which relies mostly on community support for its income.
