Re: LibreOffice_5.1.0.3

[Chris Sherlock]

It is definitely valuable feedback :-)

Are you actively working on it and need some code pointers? If that's the case, 
then this list is definitely the one to ask on, so others can help just let us 
know what you've tried so we can make sure we don't go over old ground.

Otherwise, if there isn't already a bug logged it sounds like this is a prime 
candidate so it can be tracked and someone (or multiple people!) can work on it.

Regardless, thank you for taking the time to note this. Even if it is just a 
heads up to let us know about an issue, I think it's good for us to acknowledge 
that you've taken the time and effort to look into this, and I know I for one 
appreciate it.

Thanks, Steven :-)

Actively developing ... I thought that would be the correct place to point
out the issue, to the developers? You know, so they could rework the
problem, make the software better ... developer sort of thing?

The feature is there. It works poorly. I was pointing that out to the
developers.
My bad.

Sorry for the misdirection. Thanks for the pointer.

great that you are using LibreOffice! Unfortunately, this is the wrong list for
user support. Please consider:

 us...@global.libreoffice.org or
 https://ask.libreoffice.org/en/questions/

instead. This list is for actively developing LibreOffice itself only.

Thanks,

LibreOffice_5.1.0.3

[Steven Howe]

I use DSL. I have 128K bits up, 1 mbits down. This is not uncommon.

Some issue with 'remote' file mode.
1) saving takes forever. The lock state is not good for remote file save.
Spin that task off. That's what multithreading is for.
2) local temp storage vs network. Use local for recovery. Not everyone has
gigibit bandwidth. Image I start the program and has to connect to google
drive to even finish starting up? What If my network is down? Local lock
files please.

I'd like to type 'ctrl-s' and get back to work, not wait for my Google
Drive to release me, if ever. I wait minutes the first time I use this
version. Let that process run in the background. Get back to typing.
