        <pre>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":
