Meeting minutes
The attending TC members unanimously accepted the minutes from the last
coordination call.
Action items
- none
ODF 1.2, parts
Rob: multiple documents but a single standard
benefits are obvious
might have editorial overhead
Lars: what are the three parts
DavidW. original ODF, formula, metadata
DavidW: formula
it's specifically designed to support ODF
but could be used without
Lars: think packing was also a candidate
maybe also accessibility
David: database?
Lars: keeping high-level documents in one doc makes sense because of overlap
Rob: is there any benefit in having different standards?
might make things harder for national bodies
Parick: DSDL is made up from multiple standards moving along individually
we can have different parts but there should be one standard
Rob: what about a scenario where different parts of an ISO document
standards come from different sources.
Lars: DSDL comes from different sources
Patrick: right, only RelaxNG comes from oasis
other parts where proposed as work items in ISO
Lars: possibility of third party adding part to ISO version
Patrick: might theoretically be possible, but not very likely
... all leaning towards option a)
Compatibility
Lars: Michael sent proposal
Rob: it says 'that we are compatible except where we are not'
which is ok, but we should explicitly state what those points are
DavidW. 2-step transition
apps currently write ooc: stuff
but add ability to read open-formula
and that gives people time to transition
DavidW: what about radiants/degree for 1.2
ACTION: Lars to check
Rob: go through comments again for 1.2 and look whether something is
still missing
Rob: adoption TC runs odf.xml.org
they asked me to look whether we can get SC chairs to publish monthly
updates at the site (at less technical level)
SC chairs should consider this and get back to Erwin
Rob volunteers to interview authors of ODF software and publish on
XML.org...
