Re: [libreoffice-marketing] IT Certification
I know a kid locally that is working on getting ready for as many certifications as he can BEFORE he goes off to college. His main system is Linux of some type and like LO and OOo a lot, according to his mother a used book store owner. He may be interested in getting a Certification in LO, when it becomes available. He helps his teacher out now and he hopes to have as many college credits from high school going into his first sememster of college as others get after their second or third semester only from college. The kid is smart. He is about to take the A1 or something that costs $300+ to take. On 10/16/2011 05:25 PM, Tom Davies wrote: Hi :) Fantastic! Good to see.

Re: [libreoffice-marketing] What about Real-time collaborative editing (RTCE) in LibreOffice? A simple user POW proposal
Hello. It's just an idea I want to promote, because I think it can be more interesting than some people think. Anyone can foorward the idea I expressed to anyone that can help to make it reality, I just want to become reality as an user of Libreoffice and other text editors. OASIS seems a good candidate for this, even other office suites or advanced text editors. The point of RTCE is not just for office applications, but any text editor targeted at not just very simple functionality. So this can be a wide standard in terms of possible adoption, and maybe even add interoperability with online projects like EtherPad. Regards.

Hi :) I think it might be good to forward this to OASIS. THey already have collaboration between various projects to produce OpenDocument Format specifications. I think that is part of what is being called for here? A specification that can be shared by the various existing OpenSource office applications?
