Re: [office-collab] Proposed Roadmap for ADC SC work

[Robin LaFontaine <robin.lafontaine@deltaxml.com>]

Thanks for adding these suggestions - could I ask you (or perhaps someone in KOffice will volunteer) to provide small before and after ODT documents so that we can include it in the samples. Please post these to the documents part of the subcommittee section:
http://www.oasis-open.org/apps/org/workgroup/office-collab/documents.php

Thanks,
Robin

I added two more use cases, related to interaction of change tracking with 
vendor-defined ODF extensions.

For example, I believe KOffice has an extension that allows display of 
musical notation in a document.

1) How do we change track the addition of this extension to a document?

2) How do we change track modifications made to the underlying data of the 
extension, e.g., the musical notes?

Obviously we can only provide general guidance for question #2, but 
ideally it should be possible for a second ODF editor, that knows nothing 
about the KOffice extension, to at least know that the document has been 
changed, allow user to accept/reject the change, etc.  In other words, 
some ability to handle opaque changes from extensions. Ideally.

Re: [office-collab] Proposed Roadmap for ADC SC work

By way of update to this:

- no comments on the roadmap so I am taking silence as consent!
- Doug has said Microsoft are preparing a proposal for mid-March (thanks 
    

for the update, Doug)
- there is no other proposal in preparation as far as I am aware

We now have around 64 use cases and no suggestions for anything further 
here. Any proposal needs to demonstrate how these are handled. If you 
have any more, now is the time to add them.

Regards,
Robin

In my email 7 Dec 2010 I said that I would draw up a suggested 
'roadmap' for our development of our change tracking standard. Now 
that a schedule for ODF-Next has been published, it is a good time for 
      

us to plan how best to fit into this. I have tried to take into 
account the various discussions we have been having by email.

I have put it on the wiki (1). Any comments welcome. You will see that 
      

if we keep to the proposed schedule we can submit to CSD01. This seems 
      

possible and better than aiming for CSD02 which, if we miss that, 
would make CSD03 our last chance. I think it is also best to get this 
in as early as possible to give time for refinement based on user 
feedback.
