--- Comment #54 from David Spring <[email protected]> ---
Luke, Thank you for raising this problem to critical. HTML is extremely
important to many people who use Libre Writer. HTML is the most basic language
of the Internet. From the first days of the Internet, images have been a
problem and linking images as a separate file has been an acceptable solution.
Embedding images is not an acceptable solution and never has been and never
will be. I understand that Open Office also has problems. But this is a
critical issue for those of us who use HTML to create content for the Internet.
As for Libre Writer simply abandoning the function of being an HTML editor, I
think that would be an even worse mistake. It would only result in driving
millions of people away from LibreOffice and into the hands of Open Office. I
think the solution is to take a close look at how Libre Office handled this
issue in the past and how Open Office is currently handling this issue in the
present and then adopting similar code. I realize that there are all kinds of
problems with XHTML and HTML5 and Mail Merge image insertion. But right now,
LibreWriter Save As HTML is broken. So is Export As XHTML. I appreciate the
efforts of Elaix, Writer 2 Epub and others. But they also are having trouble
keeping up with LibreOffice 5. Perhaps the team should consider slowing down on
the new features to make sure that former essential features are working again.
May the force be with you.
