Hi,
I would like to propose a new idea for open office. I believe that the "save
as" feature is out of date and for it to be replaced with "journals".
This is a simple idea let me explain. Whenever you are starting a new
document or opening an existing document it should open up a window called
your "journal" this will organize, tag, index, sort, whatever all your
documents and provide the user with every single change that has taken place
in your document, what time that change took place and possible even with
more than one user working on the document it could show who made the
changes.
The advantages of this is the ablitiy to find what your after within a
document easily, compare documents easily!, take note of all your changes in
your document and be able to revert to any time and see that state of the
document then, no more worrying about where you kept your documents, no need
to back up your documents anymore.
<snip>
It will help in many scenarios that are similar!
Dont waste time wishing you had backed up your previous document or waste
time searching through many backed up documents to find the right change..
instead skip through time with the journal..
Thanks open office team, get back to me if you decided to use my idea or
anything similar cause i wanna know for self satisfaction.
An interesting proposal but not what an office suite is supposed to do.
You want something like a mind mapping program.

There are many programs available that do this already.
Maybe an OOo plugin to one of the already available OSS versions would
be a good idea.
