IBM finally release an upgrade for Lotus Symphony, now Beta 4 version. You can download one for free and choose download for either Linux or Windows. The package is a set of applications for creating, editing, and sharing word processing documents, spreadsheets, and presentations.
The Beta 4 release adds many functions requested by the community including the ability to add new pages from an existing presentation into your current one. We’ve had great early feedback on the continued progress we have been making as well as the speed in which we are delivering the new functions.
Beta 4 is also our Developers Release. With this release we are making available a new developers toolkit, dedicated developers page on our website and a support forum for developers. All of this will enable developers to add functions to Symphony and include Symphony in their solutions. We’ve opened up the inherent capability in Symphony to add Eclipse based plugins that can either add standalone function or combined with the newly available API calls create new solutions.
