    Subject: Open Office XML?


    Greetings!
    
    Ramping up for a proofing round on the latest (version 16) of the 
    specification and I have a general question:
    
    Beginning in the introduction there are numerous references to "Open 
    Office XML."
    
    That seems awkward to me as in some cases the reference is clearly to 
    the "Open Office specification."  Or to an "Open Office document." (In 
    some cases there is "Open Office XML document," which seems rather 
    redundant. If it is an Open Office document, it is of necessity an XML 
    document.)
    
    This may seem like a rather minor point but when reading 600+ pages, 
    anything that is less than clear or makes reading more difficult, should 
    be avoided.
    
    Hope everyone is having a great day!
    
    Patrick
