    Hi Tony,

  Thanks! I also need XHTML versions per the TC Process, and if you can give me a link to the meeting minutes (or Kavi
ballot) where the TC voted to submit for public review I'll be all set.

Regards,

Mary

    Oh, I guess I hadn't read the TC process carefully.  So what, are the  
XHTML versions the only versions that are actually required?  We authored  
the documents in OpenOffice, and the XHTML export really isn't good  
enough, so there more than a bit of hand-formatting required to go that  
route.

The meeting minutes are here:

    Hi Tony,

  actually, I need all 3 - editable source (ODT), PDF and XHTML. Unfortunately OO isn't very good at creating either
HTML or XHTML; I can try some tricks that I use to see what I can do if you'd like.

    Thanks.  I'll have a go at doing the XHTML then, and let you know if I  
have any particular problems.

Cheers, Tony.

    Mary, this is really looking like a lot of work to do properly.  Some of  
the differences between OASIS XHTML template and the XHTML exported from  
the OASIS ODF template just seem designed to make extra work for people,  
like the fact that the styles/classes in the XHTML template are named  
differently from those in the ODF template, but the only difference is the  
case convention in most cases.

Were these two templates developed indepedently of each other?  What are  
other TCs doing?  Do they author in XHTML first and import into  
OpenOffice, or are they exporting XHTML from OpenOffice?  I just don't  
understand why this particular tedious editing exercise had been added as  
a compulsory hurdle for all TCs.  It's hard enough to get volunteers for  
these things, let alone if the editing requirements become prohibitive.

Cheers, Tony.

    Hi Tony,

  I'm afraid you're confusing the XHTML authoring template with the requirement to produce an XHTML version of the
specification. The XHTML template was created for those TCs who actually use XHTML as their "editable source" rather
than Word or OpenOffice or DITA or DocBook or ...  Just like a PDF is created via export or distiller or a plugin of
some sort, XHTML should be created as well. Although it's usually HTML and then the editor will run it through Tidy or
send it to me and I do whatever cleanup is required.

    Ah, OK, thanks, that's much easier then.  Cheers, Tony.

    Well, it turns out that "much easier" still leaves me with a lot of work  
to do.  I'm afraid the spec is delayed indefinitely until I can work out  
how to massage the XHTML produced by OpenOffice into something where the  
links aren't all broken, etc., etc.

Cheers, Tony.

    Tony, don't worry about it. I'm having a similar problem with the ebxml-msg public review I announced earlier today.
While I uploaded an html version, I didn't link to it in the PR notice since it's so bad. I was hoping that it was
because this is an older document that's been through numerous changes/software versions/etc and that yours wouldn't be
bad since it's fairly recent. Let me see if any of my tricks work with your document but there's no need to hold up the
review.

Thanks!

Mary
