This looks like the EU is finally offering an alternative suite of office tools to replace US corporate offerings from Google and Microsoft.

Edit: this is *not* an EU-backed programme, but an EU-based company offering an EU-hosted and owned office alternative to Microsoft/GCP providing migration and infrastructure services.

@ReggieHere My understanding is that it's a non-friendly fork of a Russian suite that still uses OOXML as its internal format - so still far too linked to the oligarchs.

@kittylyst @ReggieHere No. This is not that. What you are thinking of is Euro-Office, which is a completely different thing. Euro-Office is a fork of OnlyOffice. Which indeed has Russian roots and apparently Russian ownership (hidden behind various shell companies) and a largely Russian developer base.

This (Office.EU) is a "fork" (if you want to call it that) of Nextcloud and Collabora Office.
