History
In 2003, Mikael Hallendal and Richard Hult were working together on a project management application called Planner. They founded Imendio.After 5 years, the founders stepped back, 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 was split into Tinybird Interactive AB and Landeo GmbH. 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.
In 2011, Lanedo joined the Document Foundation's initial Engineering Steering Committee.
Starting in summer 2012, Lanedo, in cooperation with ITOMIG, supported the town of Munich in the LibreOffice maintenance of the LiMux project.
Lanedo has also actively participated in implementing the OOXML support for LibreOffice.
