ODF and XForms Sample
Hi Oliver,

This looks great.

I realize this is a very short demo, but maybe you could also make these
points as you introduce the demo:

- XForms is a W3C standard for defining electronic forms
- ODF specifies how XForms can be used inside of an ODF document

In other words, this demo is not just a special OpenOffice capability.  It
is a capability defined by the ODF and XForms specification.

Also, maybe mention that you are saving to a local XML file for the demo,
but in the real-world you ODF would also allow you to POST the form to a
server for processing.

This reminds me:  I can prepare a slide listing all of the standards that
ODF references.  I think we can use that to introduce this segment
(XForms, RDFa, MathML) of the session.

Regards,

-Rob
