I'm amazed at how many people don't read the responses to posts on SW and just post things after a problem has been solved.
Why would they spend time reading responses when there are points to be made and they can be made fastest by posting without reading? And if you post an answer that already exists you easily have a 5 - 10% chance of getting the best answer points anyway.
Since the game there is points, not the conversation, you get behaviour based around the points rather than around the conversation. Gamification cannot be easily discounted. Even people who are not aware of why they are doing stuff are often making points-based or badge-based behaviour decisions subconsciously.
I never thought of it that way. Must be why I hardly have any points ha.

Is it just me or has the post quality on SW fallen off a cliff?
I don't often see any threads with huge numbers of helpful replies either.

It's been slow since Friday, maybe Thursday. No idea why.

LOOK AT THIS GARBAGE!
How is this the product of a remotely serious company.
It'll take me as long to remove all the goop as it would have to do a clean install. I am sad panda.

Just finished configuring a ownCloud 8.2 fileserver on my XenServer test lab. I've been on Team Pydio for a while but I can't stop thinking about how much easier it's going to be for people besides myself to use ownCloud's interface.
-
We updated to the latest patch of 8.1 a week ago, so not moving to 8.2 quite yet.

A decent post on SW - I mention it because I'm curious how you'd actually solve it.

I'm surprised they can open files with multiple users and not have them open as read only.

Ha I just looked at the tags. Linux has more tags than Windows and Microsoft combined.

That is entirely up to the application. The OS doesn't care.

Office is the main program that will do this. AutoCad is suppose to too but it does not always work. (and if using DFS/Branchcache neither will work well if at all) This stuff is based on using lock files. Not always accurate. We have a program that's in house that runs on top of autocad to manage projects and who's in it as well as handle file naming, defualt text etc. All of it uses a SQL server on the back to manage it.
