= Abstract =

An .odt file that is open and actively edited by one user of Mac OS X can be 
concurrently opened and 
edited by other users of Mac OS X. 

Other users' edits are lost (over-written?) without warning.

Might this be because the file is not marked as open/busy?

= Detail =

The other users are _not_ aware of the first user's edits in progress; their 
opening of the file is not 
forced to read only. 

As the other users save their edits to the file, no error is presented. 
Everything appears fine. 

As the first user subsequently saves their edits to the same file, no error is 
presented. Everything 
appears fine. 

In fact, there is no trace of the edits that were supposedly saved by the other 
users. 

= Environment =

Mac OS X 10.5.5. 

= Background =

AFAIR I first noticed this bug whilst troubleshooting under issue 94591 
following a comment at 
GullFOSS concerning multiple users. 

= See also =

Issue 93741, I shan't guess whether what I'm reporting is related to echatzik's 
report.

= Priority =

Initially P2, 

> User data is corrupted in an easy-to-encounter way

However: if the nature of the bug is as I suspect, then I'm tempted to suggest 
P1. 

Files that are open and/or busy _without being marked/recognisable as such_ may 
cause problems to 
other applications in ways that are very unpredictable, very difficult to 
troubleshoot.
