Spreadsheet Table Protection Options

[Kohei Yoshida <kyoshida@novell.com>]

Hello,

I'd like to inform the list that my below is now ready.

http://wiki.oasis-open.org/office/Spreadsheet_Table_Protection_Options

But there is still one thing to be decided, which is the URI for the
legacy Excel password hash algorithm that we discussed earlier on
another thread.  I remember Rob mentioned something like 'ISO/IEC 29500
Legacy Hash' could be used, but Michael mentioned that it has to be an
URI.  But other than that, I don't remember we ever have reached an
agreed-upon URI that we could use for this.  The hash algorithm itself
is specified in the OOXML spec (albeit incorrectly), but it remains
unnamed if I understand Doug's statement correctly.

If we can use any URI, I can make one up.  But does anyone have any good
suggestion on what to use?

Also, I've incorporated the requirement of double-hashing the legacy
hash values into my proposal as we discussed during the call.

Kohei
