        Sorry, just could not resist!

    I have tried, really I have, to wade through the comments, counter-comments, proposals, counter-proposals, etc.

    Is the proposal in http://tools.oasis-open.org/issues/browse/OFFICE-2796

    the current state of affairs?

    Yes/No

    Dennis says at the end of that issue:

    With regard to the other complexities, I think there is a descriptive way to say what is involved based on what an admissable deletion selection is. This should simplify this a lot. I will move that into a separate JIRA issue on <text:deletion> and its <text:change> relationship.
    Dennis Hamilton added a comment - 27/Aug/10 04:24 PM Oliver, I look forward to your follow-up after OOoCon 2010. I think that, for the specific problem of revising end tags, there is a simplified way to say it. """ Whenever an element is split apart for splicing in deleted markup and the deleted markup provides different unmatched start tags for end tags following the splice, the end tag element type is changed to agree with the element type of the start tag restored from the deleted markup. """ With regard to the other complexities, I think there is a descriptive way to say what is involved based on what an admissable deletion selection is. This should simplify this a lot. I will move that into a separate JIRA issue on <text:deletion> and its <text:change> relationship.

    Question: Is there such a separate JIRA issue?

    OK, now, I assume there is no consensus on the resolution or extent of the resolution to the change tracking issue?

    If the answer to that question is yes, can we:

    1) have that on the agenda for the next TC call

    2) have everyone to express their proposed changes separate from why we should follow those changes? As a matter of fact, please write the text as you propose it to read. In email or JIRA.

    I think Dennis's concern about what happens to start-*/end-* elements is a valid one that should be addressed in 1.2. I have comments on that issue but will honor my own request and post them separately.

    Hope everyone is having a great day!

    Hi Patrick,
    
    I am back from ODF 1.2 Interop Demo and OOoCon 2010.
    I will continue in the next days my work on this issue.
    
    Thus, the current proposal may be not the final one.
    I have assigned this issue to me.
    
    Best regards, Oliver.

    No, I haven't posted it yet.
    
    I stand by the observation though.
