Thanks for the link Dennis, great start. I digged further into it and found that CMIS v1.1 was recently released (0). I also found that there was a presentation about LO/CMIS during LibOCon2012 (1)(2) And there's a good explanation with screenshots for integration with Alfresco (3) So far, what

Hello all, In the marketing materials that I am writing covering LO vs AOO, I was wondering if it would be relevant to go into an explanation about why the GPL/LGPL licence used by LO was superior to the ASL as a "true open source". I found this great document that explains the three "most common

Hello all, With only six weeks before the release, I was wondering if there was a marketing plan/strategy in place (or to be discussed at the Jan. marketing call) for targeting current MSO 2003 users with WinXP and Vista. Cheers, Immanuel -- Unsubscribe instructions: E-mail to discuss+h...@doc
