History

In 2003, Mikael Hallendal and Richard Hult were working together on a project management application called Planner. They founded Imendio. [2] [3]

After 5 years, the founders stepped back,[ clarification needed ] and the business and people continued in a new company called Lanedo founded by Tim Janik and Martyn Russell in early 2009. Mikael and Richard started a new company called TinyBird Interactive AB to work together and focus on OS X application development. As of February 2009 Imendio AB got split into Tinybird Interactive AB and Landeo GmbH.[ citation needed ] The name 'Lanedo' is based on a roughly phonetic sounding of the letters L, N, and D. These are mentioned as Linux, Networking, and Development respectively. [4]

In 2011, Lanedo joined the Document Foundation TSC (Task Steering Committee) [5] and became much more involved in the future of LibreOffice.[ citation needed ]

Starting in summer 2012, Lanedo, in cooperation with ITOMIG, supported the town of Munich in the LibreOffice maintenance of the LiMux project. [6]

Lanedo has also actively participated in implementing the OOXML support for LibreOffice. [7]

These projects are contributed to[ clarification needed ] by Lanedians. [8]
