Formal Request: ODF 1.2 Document Types Proposal

I formally request consideration of the proposal "OD 1.2 Document Type" for ODF 1.2

The new proposal document with an incomplete sketch is on the wiki at
http://wiki.oasis-open.org/office/ODF_1.2_Document_Types

The brief description of the proposal is:

"The variety of document types and the types that may arise as internal and external components of documents need to be identified, their precise characteristic structures stipulated, and their conformance characteristics, individually and in aggregate, established.

"MIMETYPE values are made normative for (loosely) conformant documents as part of this reconciliation of ODF Document Type concepts."

My promise is to have this proposal complete and under discussion on the list by January 1, 2009.
