Hello László,
Thank you for contributing this proposal to the ODF TC. We will take a
look at it and let you know if we have any questions. Note that we have a
number of other issues we are working on at the present, so it may be
several weeks before you here more from us on this.
Regards,
Rob Weir
Co-Chair OASIS ODF TC
