WebODF 0.5.9 released, with important bugfix

2015-09-04

This is a bugfix release that fixes an urgent issue. WebODF now makes absolutely sure that the mimetype file, which is used by many applications and some operating systems for identifying the mimetype of ODF files without having to depend on filename extensions or mimetypes, is not compressed within the ZIP container.

So go to the Download page and update your deployment of webodf.js or the Wodo.TextEditor. Or check the demos (general, features).

WebODF 0.5.8 released, with major bugfixes and optimizations

2015-08-07

This release comes with a packaged Wodo.CollabTextEditor product, which is the Wodo editor component for collaborative text editing. It also introduces support for annotations in collaborative mode, removes some editing regressions introduced by changes in Browser APIs. Also of note is improved compression in generated documents (which should be much, much smaller now) thanks to JSZip, a javascript library for creating, reading, and editing ZIP files.

So go to the Download page and update your deployment of webodf.js or the Wodo.TextEditor. Or check the demos (general, features).
