Hi Tora,
OOo3.1 has already collision detection system, although it is mostly
useful in case system file locking is turned off. If the document was
changed during the editing the user gets notification that he might
remove changes from somebody else.
If the system file locking is on, the mentioned scenario is only
possible when the system file locking does not work as expected. That
might happen in heterogeneous networks.
Best regards,
Mikhail.

Hi,
Why don't we, at least, consider letting OpenOffice.org have a collision
(or conflict) detection system to prevent loosing someone else's efforts.

will be lost)
(b) Save your document as another file
