Hi Chuck
I'm a simple user so the code base and license are completely
irrelevant to
me. What IS relevant is the way the software works. So, please, can
you
tell me half a dozen things that LO can do that OO cannot do?
There are in fact a few useful features in LO that AOO does not have:
1) Opening/saving remote files from several sources (OwnCloud, WebDAV,
Google Drive, etc)
2) Opening recent MS XML documents (quite a few show better results in
LO than AOO)
3) Saving in MS XML format. This is useful for exchanging documents with
those who can't or won't use LO or AOO, although it's true that saving
in this format is the wrong way to push ODF (and document freedom)
forward
4) Using fast data filters in Calc (just check/uncheck items instead of
using the not-so-friendly Standard Filter)
5) Use a full window width horizontal scroll bar in Calc (this is unique
in LO) instead of a scroll bar limited to the space to the left of the
sheet tabs
It's nearly half a dozen but are the ones I find really important on my
day-to-day work...
Regards,
Pedro
