Subject: 2.8.3.2 size (OpenDocument-v1.2draft7-3.odt)
Small proposal to replace this paragraph "The manifest:size attribute is only present if the file is stored in an encrypted format. See section 2.3. This attribute is only used for encrypted files." with "The manifest:size attribute shall be present if the file is stored in an encrypted format. See section 2.3. The value of this attribute is the unencrypted, uncompressed file size in bytes." These are actually two change requests: A) Include the unit: Of course, it's good practice to always include the unit even when it's pretty obvious what we're talking about B) Allow the size attribute for non-encrypted files: although a bit superfluous, I don't think including the file size for non-encrypted files should be regarded as an error. (I suppose it might even come in handy for some applications) Granted, checking if the manifest:file-entry has a manifest:size attribute instead of testing for a manifest:encryption-data child - to figure out if a file is encrypted or not - might save a few cycles. But that wouldn't be self-explanatory, so let's not tempt the premature optimizers by stating that the attribute is only present if the file is encrypted :-) Best regards, Bart
