What is different, the application would run headless and properly configured work within a LAMP environment. There are some blog posts that cover how to do that (I don't have links right off hand) but it would be less then overwhelming if you just fired up a copy of LibreOffice from within your LAMP server. Second; the pieces that need to be added on to LibreOffie when running behind your web server are delivered by marrying LO with a content management system. NextCloud integration is a good example of this. You can find information on that at the NextCloud webiste: https://nextcloud.com/collaboraonline/ and you will notice that Collabora, a vendor which is on the advisory board for TDF and which supplies much of the engineering resources behind the effort, is who supplies the production ready incantation of LibreOffice Online. Third; if you want an easy way to test this, the Collabora folks offer appliances (docker image for example) with both NextCloud and Collabora Office ready to go. You can find information on that here: https://www.collaboraoffice.com/code/ Finally, If you are going to look at deploying within your organization then I would highly recommend you look at a support contract from a Document Foundation Certified vendor. Best wishes, Drewi may also blog about this on ossmalta.eu and ask if the local linux user group would like to collaborate on this for the Maltese region for raising awareness. regards, Warren.

Also Yes, list maintenance is an issue. Maybe come at it as a blog post consisting of a survey of which web hosting operations are already offering Collabora Online (LibreOffice Online) with some details of those offerings. This becomes a snapshot in time then instead of a list needing update. I don't know if NextCloud w/ Collabora Online is the only news which could go in that article. As you say there is a difference between LibreOffice Online and Collabora Online, so if there are organizations deploying LibreOffice Online differently and some information could be had for inclusion I think that would be a good idea. Maybe not a bad idea for an online tech journal article either, just saying.

Maybe. I guess it can help grow market. Maintaining lists, is often a problem we know. Especially since... how can we find the new/existing locations? Please note by the way, that there is Collabora Online and LibreOffice Online. Similar function wise, but different in support probably. Will it, when people know about it and start to search, ask atproviderse.g., have a stimulating effect? greetings, Cor -- Cor Nouws GPD key ID: 0xB13480A6 - 591A 30A7 36A0 CE3C 3D28 A038 E49D 7365 B13480A6- vrijwilliger https://nl.libreoffice.org - volunteer https://www.libreoffice.org - Member Board The Document Foundation - http://www.nouenoff.nl / https://www.mijncloudoffice.nl-- To unsubscribe e-mail to: marketing+unsubscribe@global.libreoffice.org Problems? https://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: https://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/marketing/ Privacy Policy: https://www.documentfoundation.org/privacy
