Michael Brauer is maintaining the agenda. So I CC'ed him in order to ask 
him to schedule it. So you like to have a clean OpenDocument spec too ;-)

Regarding the OpenDocument format I would say so. However in the current 
implementation e.g. OpenOffice.org Calc spreadsheets do not support 
tables in tables either.
I think this very much comes down to the question whether all 
OpenDocument processing entities must implement all possible features or 
whether it is valid to implement only a common sub set. We already 
started a "conformance" discussion in the TC some time ago, but I think 
we must continue it. My favorite would be to define a 
"feature-subset"(maybe based on the work by Waldo Bastian?)  together 
with an exhaustive test-suite, such that interoperability between the 
different OpenDocument processing entities can be guaranteed.
Michael, may I ask you to re-schedule the "conformance" problem also for 
one of the future meetings. I know currently ISO has highest prio...but 
hopefully this is solved at some point int the future...
