    Hi editors, the corresponding section 19.597.6 <chart:plot-area> is totally deleted. But we want to keep the heading with added "(deleted)" to keep the heading numbers of the following headings. So it should be e.g. 19.597.6 <chart:plot-area> (deleted since ODF 1.4) Kind regards, Regina

    Hi Regina I agree that the heading of 19.597.6 should be retained, in line with the ODF TC decision to avoid re-numbering. However, I'm wondering about whether the text added to the heading should mention the version number, or whether it would be better to follow the precedent set in ODF 1.3 by stating in Appendix G that: "The deprecated value 'table:cell-range-address' 19.597.6 has been deleted Office-3741" We could then just append "(deleted)" to the heading. I realise that implementers of future editions would have to check previous editions to determine in which edition the attribute was deleted. However, we don't record in the body of the text the edition when an attribute is first marked as deprecated, so including the version number when an attribute is deleted but not when it is deprecated strikes me as somewhat inconsistent. We could add version numbers to headings marked "(deprecated)" - I think there are 39 of these in ODF 1.4 currently. Kind regards, Francis
