Hi Andreas, :-) IMHO, the odfauthors.org software is far from being an ideal tool for the LibreOffice docs team. A) The odfauthors.org software is a product of a past time, when leading-edge systems like Alfresco had not yet reached maturity, that does not have all the features and power of a ful

Hi Andreas, :-) Thought: I think that odfauthors.org is a great resource for smaller Open Source projects that don't have the people, time or resources to properly develop their own documentation. But I think it's in the best interests of a *major* software project like LibreOffice to have an in-

What do you mean by "My server has excellent 24/7 technical support."? Is your server @ Amazon or other amazon like Company? For a Document Management System DMS, I will definitely suggest to use Alfresco in a secure place which guarantees 24/7 up time and support, but definitely not a home server
