[libreoffice-users] Re: Impress mobility w/sound & video + links

Hi NoOp and all interested,

the code that was integrated is not in a state that is usable for
a product. Unfortunately I never got the time to finish it. There
is still some work to be done. The wizard would actually be a good
think, despite the fact that I already had it nearly working that
you could embed sound and video using the link dialog.

At this point I can't tell if I will work on this feature again,
but if anyone wants to pick it up I'm willing to give guidance.

Regards,
Christian
