Thanks Robin for doing the poll.
I will start writing on comments after I have passed two deadlines
next Tuesdays.
Best regards,
Svante

2) Compatibility for collaboration has not been provided,
although it would be possible and is the next step of the SC
Please let me know what changes you would like to see.
Regarding (1), the document is not intended to be a
specification, so I am unclear about your comment.
Perhaps the statement in 4 Scope, "This expansion includes not
only the areas within ODF but also the need for collaboration."
could be expanded if you can provide some text.
Section 6 includes this:
"The focus of both ECT and GCT is on change tracking rather than
collaborative editing. Recently one member of the SC has been
looking in more detail at collaborative editing based on the
Google wave methodology. A major difference between this
approach and ECT/GCT change tracking is that the edits are
represented in a document separate from the original document.
This separate document specifies Operational Transformations
(OT), each of which has an effect on the original document. This
has advantages in some, though not all, applications. Work is
ongoing and no specification for this has yet been presented to
the SC for discussion. Initial feedback shows that GCT is
proving useful as a way of specifying the effect of an OT, and
it is possible that the external change document could be
related in a formal way to a GCT representation. However, this
is not yet worked out in any detail. "
You mentioned in the call recent advances in this area and so
perhaps something needs to be added here.
As mentioned in the call, please provide this within two weeks
so we can update the document.
Robin
