Was easy how many times ? In how many different organisations ? Which size/industry ? My experience (and I spent several years working in a company in the collaboration space, and am now working in exactly the king of big corp Sun wants to win right now) is that 90% of the collaboration problems are there. If you really know how to make documents revisions flow smoothly in big corporations, especially documents produced by different departments, you should cash on it quickly. You'd have enough money to buy the OO.o team from Sun and retire to a gold-plated palace in your own tropical island. I'm not saying setting up document flows is impossible, just that the vast majority of organisations do not manage it properly. Which just shows usual office tools are not up to this task. Of course you sometimes have happy surprises. -- Nicolas Mailhot --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
