------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Thu Sep 22 14:02:19 -0700 2005 ------- After taking a peek at Gobby (http://gobby.0x539.de/), I realized that collaborative work is actually a fairly awesome idea. A possible future feature of OpenOffice.org could be collaborative work; this would definitely set OOo apart from any existing office suite. An important considerations for this would include encryption, since sometimes documents contain confidential information. Most stream ciphers like RC4 are either underused and thus haven't withstood the test of time, or horribly insecure. Block ciphers on the other hand operate on fixed-size blocks and have waste when used for real-time applications, as they need padding. AES is accepted to be secure, and uses a 128-bit (16 byte) block cipher. It might be possible to use something like a variation on Resudiual Block Termination for series of data that are bigger than a block but not exactly the size of N blocks; although padding will probably be easier. Anyone else have input on the idea? --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
