Hi Neils,
+1, However, I'd also like to express a wish for the ability to launch the
openoffice server the "old fashioned tedious
way" for those with security
concerns and a desire for standards of service administration on web
servers. Does this new release re-enable that capability that was removed
from 1.8M2?
Currently we are evaluating the possibility of sharing an
OpenOffice.org
server instance between multiple wikis. Jodconverter at the moment does not
support this feature:
http://groups.google.com/group/jodconverter/browse_thread/thread/f4505c2454…
we believe that some hacking into jodconverter will allow us to
implement this feature.
Putting everything together (if we succeed with hacking jodconverter),
OfficeImporter admin interface will allow admins to either specify an
external OOo server to connect to or let XE start it's own OOo server
process. This would be the ideal outcome, lets's see if we can get there :)
Thanks.
