          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: enhancement

Description:
Real-time or synchronous collaborative editing allows multiple individuals to
simultaneously edit the same document. Collaborative real-time editing of text,
spreadsheets, presentations (and databases), has become standard in the work
environment.

LibreOffice Online provides collaborative editing, but LibreOffice (desktop)
does not support real-time collaborative editing. This request relates to
improving LibreOffice's capabilities for collaborative work, in all of its
modules. 

Although this feature request is not new, there was no general bug entry for
this. There are several related, but more specific bugs in the bug tracker. I
link the following in "See Also":
Bug 73831 : Collaborative work for writer
Bug 97282 : Enhanced Change Tracking/collaboration proposal - immutable XML
Bug 125733 : iOS: Collaborative Editing with Nextcloud
Bug 131461 : Connexion to NextCloud and collaborative editing
Bug 83946 : (Track-Changes) - [META] Tracking changes issues
