------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Wed Dec 27 05:32:53 -0800 2006 ------- I agree that backup files should be placed in the same folder with original ones. 1) When needed, it's more convenient to find backups in the current, working directory, then search for them somewhere in the user profile. 2) As the issue author has already stated, files with the same name are being overwritten, that is not good. 3) SECURITY REASONS. Let's suppose, I'm working with some doc placed on a removable drive. Or on an encrypted drive, like Truecrypt. When I'm working with Microsoft Word, both the original file and the backup copy remain on the encrypted/removable drive. When I'm working with OOo Writer, the backup copy is placed on common drive, thus accessible for everyone. I think, it's quite a big security hole. :( --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
