Hi,

We also discussed on some chat that we should modify our fork and instead use/merge the fork from. Maybe Thomas remembers which fork it was?

Thanks -Vincent

Hi devs,

We have users that complain that configuring and starting the Office Server is very hard/technical.

This is mostly because the configuration is done in xwiki.properties, plus some bugs, plus the missing documentation link towards the Office Server operating system values.

I've made 2 proposals on http://design.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/Proposal/IdeaOfficeServer

The first one just makes some rearranging, adds a documentation link and propose we fix some bugs by adding support to newer versions of Office (in order for the auto-detect to function properly). The other proposal also transforms the configuration from read-only values, to inputs that can be changed from Administration.

Let me know what you think, Caty
