Once you get your mind around "workflow" you'll never want to live without it. Steep curve though, it is a real change of mindset. And CMIS is an extensible data model and allows for establishing relationships between documents in a standard way. No bad there, and a big step forward over something like DropBox which simply moves the 'garbage dump' from the [Open] file-server to the [proprietary] cloud. -- For unsubscribe instructions e-mail to: users+h...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
