Dear Stu,
don't worry. Marc really got a point but probably Tor believes you're not able to declare a variable in _javascript_ and tries to sell you Collabora products :-).
There is *official* documentation about how to build, configure and run LibreOffice Online here: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development/LibreOffice_Online .
LibreOffice Online is substantially an in-browser wrapper of the core of LibreOffice so that you have the same stability/capabilities that you have in the desktop version, online. Collaborative editing is supported and pretty well-working.
You can integrate it into your application using the WOPI protocol.
Feel free to ask in the ML if you have any problem compiling or running LOOL.
Best,
Marco
Well, I wasn't trying to start a flamewar or a drama episode or anything. I didn't know collabawhatever was a thing.but a) it looks like a commercial product? b) it sounds like they just run libreoffice on a web server and project the instance to whoever's on that webpage. c) somebody has to supply the 'cloud' that it runs on.
I'm a big fan of fat clients. ms word and libre office will always be superior to google docs (in my opinion only obviously) because it runs locally on my machine. What I was getting at was a way to make a fat client collaborative.
But if there's no interest, I'll drop it.
Thanks for the info.

:) No but is really a question. I want to try a bit this libre office
online and I am not even able to get a simple test environment running
that creates a odt file that I can edit from multiple clients.
Even the manual of libre online online ~50% writing about other
products/services.

Why do people send collabra office stuff on a libre office mailing
list???? The question is clearly about libre office.
Oh sorry then. I will now go back in the corner to enjoy my popcorn.
