Probably because the person wants something that works.
And the
extension you suggest does not work.


http://extensions.services.openoffice.org/en/project/ReadabilityReport

it should work just as well with LibreOffice as with
OpenOffice.org.


You do realize that that extension causes both LibO and
OOo to crash
every time it is called, don't you.



Been a while since I used it, so no I did not realize that
it was broke. But with all the changes to both programs I
guess it is not surprising. Some basic features in the
current RC of both are messed up as it is.



Apparently it's a Windows-only thing.

Because that's a maintenance nightmare.  We'd tried that before.

Anyway, if you want to discuss technical details about this issue, let's
take this to the dev list.  I'm sure there are more qualified people
willing to participate in the discussion, which is better than just me
answering all the questions.

Re: [tdf-discuss] Features enterprises will love to have in LibreOffice

[Jaime R. Garza]

Hello Christoph,

sorry, but an HTML5 LibreOffice could be also installed locally in a client,
as I said before. And the LibreOffice Community will only have to maintain
one HTLM5 version for any platform. Now there are 3 versions, Linux, Mac, &
Windows.

So, as conclusion, a HTML5 LibreOffice has following advantages:

- SaaS - HTML5 also allows offline usage, basically the Google Gears
Technology is being implemented into HTML5
- Local installation is also possible in any desktop!
- Platform-independent
- Only one main version for all! Saving the parallel development

Cheers!

Jaime

Why not just duplicate the filters and separate them? Then you can
manipulate the xlsx filter to your hearts content without affecting the
xls filter at all.

I would have to side with Jaime. i don't think we should rule out all 
together having a web based version. I have used Google doc's a number 
of times, and in all honesty for my business i would really consider 
using a web based version when out of the office as it functions like a 
centralized storage until i get back to the office.

Well, not that heavily, and even if so I'd immediately give that back
anyways.

Re: [tdf-discuss] Features enterprises will love to have in LibreOffice

[Jaime R. Garza]

Hello,

I believe the best feature for the enterprise will be to port LibreOffice to
HTML5, this could be also installed locally in the clients, needing just a
browser to run.

If LibreOffice doesn't go in direction WebBased, it will be soon irrelevant
in the enterprise (as soon as Google Docs, MS Docs, Zoho, Oracle cloud
Office, IBM Cloud Office, etc. are mature enough), since Enterprises want to
deliver Standard Applications directly in the browser, with no need to
administer on premise installations and support.

Cheers!

Sorry, I apologize for the first two sentences of this. But I am getting
annoyed by those senseless discussions. Should we repeat the errors
Oracle did again?

Hi Andrea,

The OpenOffice.org experience, and the first distribution-specific
LibreOffice bugs like
http://www.mail-archive.com/discuss@documentfoundation.org/msg04508.html
make me think that fragmentation, while of course allowed by the
license, should be discouraged when it comes to functionality;
I'm not questioning desktop integration or branding, but I'd like to know why
distributions feel they have to make changes to functionality...


I do not expect at all that distros will have much appetite in making 
substantial functional changes. (And I am glad with that ;-) )
The bug you point to, does not suggest that they will make substantial 
changes, though?


Regards,
Cor

[tdf-discuss] Features enterprises will love to have in LibreOffice

[Olivier Hallot]

Hi
I have collected some features enteprises will love to have implemented 
in LibreOffice and listed them in


http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development/Crazy_Ideas#Features_Enterprises_Will_Love_To_Have_Implemented

Some are quite easy to implement, other may require a longer time for 
development, but all are based on real demand from people that use 
LibreOffice in a enterprise production environment. That is,  they are 
not crazy ideas at all. :-)

Hi Jonathan,

There are RSS feeds for multiple things in Shapado. For example if you
click on any tag you will get a feed for the particular tag, or you can
get a feed for all questions. You can also get a feed for a specific
question and its answers.

There are some basic hooks to Facebook apps, Twitter and another service
is mentioned to further connect Shapado's data: http://dlvr.it. I
haven't tried any of this yet, but if anyone's interested in playing
with it just ask me and I'll provide admin access - I'll just ask to see
some of your previous participation here on any of LibO's project list.

I know RSS ->  mailing list is possible so prsumably that could happen
but mailing list ->  shapado, I doubt it, unless someone does it - there
is a RESTful API in the works but I haven't followed that part of the
project.

Direct questions about Shapado itself can be asked here too:
http://shapado.com/

Cheers,

Fabián

Fabian i would love to try out the other api's available with it such as 
facebook and twitter, as I feel they will be essential in helping us 
extend the user base and outreach.


As you mentioned you would like to see other contributions to the 
project, at the moment i'm only starting to work on a rather large easy 
hack of removing extra space from code files. I submitted the patch but 
I do not think it has made it to the mailing list for review :(
