Hi everyone,

Thanks for the note. Yes, it does sound that

There should almost be a mailist
dedicated to LibO use for academia where we
could collect the data
needed to make LibO a great tool for academia

This list comes from my experience (When I wrote my
dissertation in the humanities), I hope this is
appropriate:

* Bibliographic Tools.
http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Bibliographic/OOoBib_Functional_Requirements
http://openoffice.2283327.n4.nabble.com/JabRef-OpenOffice-integration-td2813042.html#a2813042

In addition to the bibliography tools.

* Improvements to the Alphabetical Indexes.
http://www.openoffice.org/nonav/issues/showattachment.cgi/71959/Alphabetical_Index.pdf
Moreover, many contracts require that authors act as their own indexers.
e.g.
http://www.cambridge.org/aus/information/aca_index.htm

* Improvements to the footnotes.
e.g.
http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=23997
http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=29680
http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=18326
http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=13308
http://www.oooforum.org/forum/viewtopic.phtml?t=62243

* Improvements to the Table of Contents.
e.g.
http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=27377
http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=90841

* "Don't add space between paragraphs of the same style"
e.g.
http://www.oooforum.org/forum/viewtopic.phtml?t=46757
http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=34199
http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=43220
This option is very popular with users of MsWord.

* The Holy Grail of the writers: Outline View.

What is your opinion?

Jacques

Great Jacques, this is great! Could you add this to the discussion thread "LibO in Academia" on the marketing mailist? I am collecting exactly this data with the hope of zeroing on the "assets" needed to win over the academic crowd.

You will have to join the marketing list to do this.
