Subject: Question on process and Chapter 10 proposed eratta
Greetings! Have attached as an HTML file a list of proposed eratta for Chapter 10 of the specification. Had a short day today because I had to take my daughter back to college (Spring vacation). Did think of one process question, mainly for Michael and Daniel, but of interest to the group: Is there a form of proposed eratta submission that would be better than another? Hope everyone is having a great day!

1. Note that we seem to have lost the style:
"The attributes that you can associate with the ***** element are:"
Realize that would bulk up the specification some but it did provide a convenient place for cross references (so explanations would not have to be repeated) as well as enumerating all of the attributes of a given element.
10.2 Chart First paragraph, first sentence reads: "The chart element represents an entire chart, including titles, a legend, and the graphical object that visualizes the underlying data called the plot area." To be consistent with other references to elements, "chart element" should read: "<chart:chart> element" with appropriate styling.
Class First paragraph, first sentence reads: "The class attribute specifies the chart type." To be consistent with other references to attributes, "class attribute" should read: "chart:class attribute" with appropriate styling.
Column and Row Mapping First paragraph, first sentence reads: "The chart:column-mapping and chart:row-mapping attributes contain if provided a list of indexes of series." Suggest (note added commas): "The chart:column-mapping and chart:row-mapping attributes contain, if provided, a list of indexes of series."
Style Name First sentence reads: "The chart:style-name attributes references a chart style." "attributes" -> "attribute"
10.3.1 First paragraph, first sentence reads: "The title element represents a main title object in a chart document." To be consistent with other references to elements, "title element" should read: "<chart:title> element" with appropriate styling.
Position and Size Sentence reads: "The common positioning attributes for drawing objects can be used on title elements." To be consistent with other references to elements, "title elements" should read: "<chart:title> elements" with appropriate styling.
Style Name First paragraph, first sentence now reads: "For further styling information, you can assign a style name to the title element." "title element" -> "<chart:title> element" "assign a style name to" -> "set the chart:style-name attribute for" Suggest: "For further styling information, you can set the chart:style-name attribute for the <chart:title> element."
Style Name First paragraph, last sentence reads: "You can also apply two alignment properties, Orientation and Rotation Angle, see section ." If we are still talking about the "title text itself," then Text Rotation is in section 14.4. Assuming that is correct, ... Suggest: strike.
10.3.2 Subtitle First paragraph, first sentence reads: "The subtitle element represents a subtitle which can be used for additional title information in a chart." To be consistent with other references to elements, "subtitle element" should read: "<chart:subtitle> element" with appropriate styling.
10.3.2 Subtitle Second paragraph reads: "The structure of the subtitle element is the same as that of the title element. The attributes you can use on the subtitle element are the same as those you can use on the title element. See section 10.3.1 for more information." "subtitle element" -> "<chart:subtitle> element" (2 times) "title element" -> "<chart:title> element" (2 times)
10.3.3 Footer First paragraph reads: "The footer element represents a footer below the chart's plot area." "footer element" -> "<chart:footer> element"
10.3.3 Footer Second paragraph reads: "The structure of the subtitle element is the same as that of the title element. The attributes you can use on the subtitle element are the same as those you can use on the title element. See section 10.3.1 for more information." Looks like a duplicate of the second paragraph in 10.3.2. Note it mentions "subtitle element" and not "footer." Suggest strike
10.4 Legend First paragraph, first sentence reads: "The legend element determines whether or not a legend is displayed in the chart." "legend element" -> "<chart:legend> element"
Legend Styling First paragraph, first sentence reads: "Additional styling information for the chart legend can be referenced through the style name attribute." "style name attribute." -> "chart:style-name attribute." (with appropriate styling)
Plot Area First paragraph, first sentence reads: "The plot area element is a container for the graphics objects that represent chart data." "The plot area element" -> "<chart:plot-area> element"
Plot Area Style First paragraph, first sentence reads: "The style that you apply to the plot area element is used for all data elements contained inside the plot area, unless you specify extra styles in one of those sub elements." "The style that you apply to" -> "The chart:style-name attribute that you set for" "the plot area element" -> "<chart:plot-area> element"
