Re: [office] style:list-style-name and list-id

["Florian Reuter" <freuter@novell.com>]

Interresting. I must admit that my understanding of lists is different. In my world a list-definition is directly
attached to a counter domain. I'm polluted by my work with WW and WP lists for sure. I guess thats why I don't really
understand the KOffice way of numbering.

So I agree with you. We both seem to have our view on lists resp. numbered-paragraphs. At the end we have to select one
for ODF.

Looking forward to talk to you in the TC call.

Best regards,

~Florian

P.S.
Don't take this personal :-) We did our best to present our views to the TC and now the TC will make a decision. That
good and I'm happy we have this kind of open process.

No, it does not ;)

You are mixing up the difference between a list-style and a list.
One list is a set of paragraphs.
A list-style can be used on one or more lists.

For example, if I have a list on page 1 with all my friends helping me with 
the organisation of a party that is one list.
If I have another list on page 4, using the same list style to list the names 
of the contact-persons for the party, it is a different list. Even though the 
markup is the same.

In contrary to the normal practice of OOo the first list item on page 4 would 
not have a 'continue=false' item because for all intends and purposes it is 
the first item in a list, and thus starts numbering at the start.
