Per Rob's email about the "Help us brainstorm ideas for Apache OpenOffice 4.0" I was perusing the Google Moderator doc[1] and came across this suggestion:
"Provide social capabilities within core editors to share selection, page/sheet/slide, or entire document with popular services including: micro-blogs, social networks, curation communities, and file sharing services." I think there's a lot to be said for this, and wouldn't mind getting involved with such an initiative. Posting this to try and spark some discussion around this suggestion. My own comment, in response to Kevin's Moderator post was this: "I like the idea of having something like this. If we had something like that, I'd like a somewhat generic / extensible framework, so it can be wired into pretty much any service, including services that don't even exist today." Any thoughts on what "social integration" for AOO should look like, and is anyone else interested in this?
