Miklos Vajna
Miklos got involved with OpenOffice.org development in 2010 when he completed
two Google Summer of Code projects to improve the RTF import/export filter of
Writer. Later he became a full-time LibreOffice Writer developer for SUSE, now
mostly working on Collabora Online.

LibreOffice was always capable of hosting endnotes on one or more separate
Writer pages at the end of the document, as opposed to footnotes, which appear
on the same page as the anchor itself. Word has a third mode: continuous
endnotes appear directly at the end of the body text, inline. This case was
not supported for Writer for a long time, then a first version was added in
2019. While this version did work for simple cases, it had trouble with
scaling to multi-page endnotes. This year's section version is based on
sections, which scales much better. Come and see how this work is implemented,
where are the still rough edges and how you can help.
