The project site has links to AOO and LO plugin pages:
https://sourceforge.net/projects/fbtools/

The LibreOffice page has an obsolete version 2.36 from 2015, with some problems like duplicating variable names, fixed in version 2.57, that prevent using that obsolete version with LibreOffice.

It would be nice to either update the plugin page to have an up-to-date version (but that would mean extra work from authors, to keep it up to date), or - maybe better - to remove all releases from there, and just point to the SourceForge files directly.

Thank you!

    Links on AOO/LOO plugin pages follows previously published (and also not followed) releases.
    I've stop duplicating releases there because of inoperable authentication with stored passwords. «Restoring» password for each upload is an abnormal thing.

    For now there is more critical issue.
    dikbsd for a years can't not only actively develop, but now can't even support current version.
    I'm not responsible for LO extensions development.
    So, primary task for now is to find interested developer and help him to get the project.
