  • 1.  ODF with W3C ODF

    Posted 10-16-2006 15:42 
    In ODF 1.2 timeframe, could we spend some time to think about a formal way to introduce or combine different namespace/format such as XHTML,XForm,SVG,SMIL into ODF, like W3C CDF has defined.

Currently, the XForm/SVG/SMIL in ODF have some limitations, and  combine different format into ODF will make ODF more powerful and functional. So I tink it worth to investigate and define a way in ODF to contain those foreign namespace/format info although there already has some definition in ODF about foreign elements.


thx,

Yue Ma

I would find that of interest. I dimly recall that WG 1 in SC 34 in the 
RELAX standard (now in ten parts so pardon my memory) has a mechanism 
for dealing with namespaces. I will run that down and post a reference 
to the list. Just something we might want to look at in considering your 
suggestion.

Hope you are having a great day!
