"First release of Impress Remote Control App for Android, supported only on some Linux distributions. (The second release, coming soon, will be supported on all platforms: Windows, MacOS X and all Linux distros and binaries.)"

Remote control of your documents? Huh? How would that be used?
BTW, I was surprised and pleased by that Linux Dell Netbook yesterday. I needed to quickly print off an image - and had never connected it to my printer before (a Brother laser printer) - so was anticipating problems.
I just plugged it in - and Ubuntu recognised the type of printer, and in a few seconds had configured itself and was ready to run. With Windows I would have probably had half an hour of hunting down the correct driver and then found it installed a big pile of extra junk that I'd never need or use....

Awesome.
Most important new feature IMO:
Possibility to import Microsoft Publisher documents, and further improvement of Visio import filters with the addition of 2013 version (just announced).
My favourite features:
Additional UI incremental improvements, including Unity integration and support of Firefox Themes (Personas) to give LibreOffice a personalized look. Introduction of the widget layout technique for dialog windows, which makes it easier to translate, resize and hide UI elements, reduces code complexity, and lays a foundation for a much improved user interface.
Thank goodness LibreOffice is being more pro-active with development. It's such a critical app for the adoption of Free Software.
Best,
Sam.
