  • 1.  JIRA Issues for 12 October 2015 TC Teleconference

    Posted 09-28-2015 18:27
    Greetings! Another rough bundle of JIRA issues with notes, etc. for discussion at our next teleconference. Suggestion: Any issues that are discussed prior to the meeting will move to the top of the stack. Thinking that will help us reach issues of the most interest and if I can, I will group non-controversial issues together (prior to the meeting). Such as: proposed to close (here is a list of issues) unless someone prefers otherwise at the TC meeting. Mostly for things we have forgotten to close, already fixed, etc. Hope everyone is at the start of a great week! Patrick PS: I will try to drop the next bundle of issues on Oct. 12th so you will have the full two weeks to review them. -- Patrick Durusau patrick@durusau.net Technical Advisory Board, OASIS (TAB) OpenDocument Format TC (OASIS), Project Editor ISO/IEC 26300 Co-Editor 13250-5 (Topic Maps) Another Word For It (blog): http://tm.durusau.net Homepage: http://www.durusau.net Twitter: patrickDurusau Attachment: JIRA-Issues-ODF-TC-12October2015.ods Description: application/vnd.oasis.opendocument.spreadsheet

OFFICE-657 is a reply to the mail from OFFICE-638. the surviving issue should get target ODF-Next. * OFFICE-645 my guess is that this refers to 9.4.12 <table:named-range> and/or 9.4.13 <table:named-expression>, neither of which allow an xml:id attribute, so closing them with "just use RDF" appears premature. * OFFICE-688 the unresolved part of it is the proposal to move to something other than XML Schema-2 data types - i have no idea what the benefit of that would be or why we should do that. * OFFICE-737 ODF 1.2 was released with that attribute name and we don't want to break compatibility so close this one. * OFFICE-752, OFFICE-758 these are clearly duplicates; despite the subject OFFICE-752 has nothing to do with SUMMARY() as the author has just hi-jacked an existing email thread. however after attempting to read the attached document, it is completely unclear to me what the requested function should actually do. regards, michael -- Michael Stahl Software Engineer Platform Engineering - Desktop Team Red Hat Better technology.

    Michael, Just quickly, I will respond to your specific comments, probably tomorrow. Sure, I can re-sort the issues to ascending. It was just an artifact of the export from JIRA. No conscious choice on my part. I will be updating JIRA as we agreed on the call and I need to get that done tomorrow as well. Thanks for the comments! Hope you are having a great week!

    Greetings! Apologies to Michael for the lateness of my response but in general I am line with Michael's suggested disposition on these issues. Does anyone disagree? Any objection to taking up commented issues first so we can dispose of them quickly? Hope everyone is having a great weekend!
