Hi,
I thought we agree not to display the office importer menu entry if
the office importer app wasn't installed?
Yes, this is already implemented. I was talking about office importer
wysiwyg plugin only.
To be consistent we shouldn't have an office
import action in the
wysiwyg if the office importer app isn't installed too
Hmmmm, this I'm not sure about.
Copying / pasting from office documents can function even without
having an
openoffice server. This functionality doesn't depend on officeimporter
application, though it depends on officeimporter module
(xwiki-officeimporter).
My suggestion was about file upload tab inside officeimporter wysiwyg
dialog, which requires openoffice server to function.
Yes, my question was: why have this tab enabled when the openoffice
server is not started?
Thanks

Maybe we
should not display the entries if the office server is not
started too.
I think you are referring to officeimporter xwiki-ui behaviour, this
we have
voted and finalized.
Thanks.

WDYT?
