That would be me.

I periodically (i.e., not daily, but more like monthly) go through the 
comments list and transcribe any bug report or feature request into a 
spreadsheet, note the submittor, date, etc.  The ODF TC will then discuss 
and dispose each comment.  The actions taken will be noted in our meeting 
minutes as well as posted to this list.

That is the plan at least.  But, honestly, we have a backlog of comments 
to process, including a recent batch from JISC, the Japanese national 
standards body.  So at our last call we agreed to form a small taskforce, 
consisting of the TC's two Co-Chairs and our Project Editor, to accelerate 
progress on these comments, and to propose recommendations on them for the 
TC to consider.

If you look at our wiki (
http://wiki.oasis-open.org/office/OpenDocument_v1.2_Action_Items) you can 
see the items already added to ODF 1.2, as well as the items currently 
under discussion.  It does not list the unprocessed comments.  I'd to get 
those in their as well, if I can find a good way to automate that.

Regards,

-Rob
