Peter Kaplan requests in the Groove forums: I want to have the link capabilities of windows files system in groove so that I perceive that I only have one instance of a file and I can locate it other places as links. I want the file to be able to be (the original instance) in either groove or mydocs. I want to be able to put a link in the other place. I don't care if groove behind the scenes makes the link into an encrypted copyof the file and maintains the sync but to me I am only maintaining one instance and then as many links as I need to it. I strongly agree. This particular functionality has been requested recently by a number of our clients who are using or considering the use of Groove. "Being forced" to keep multiple copies of a document on their local PC or network,  is slowing down and some cases even preventing the widespread acceptance and adoption of Groove in their organisations.  I think it's important this issue should be adressed in future versions of the Groove Workspace somehow but i can't help wondering if in the meantime GWS could offer some sort of short term solution ?
