Regards, Oliver. -------- Original Message -------- Subject: Re: [Fwd: Re: [Fwd: Re: [office] Review of ODF 1.2 specification draft 1.2 - chapters 6 and 7]] Date: Mon, 12 Jan 2009 08:55:42 +0100 From: Oliver Specht <Oliver.Specht@Sun.COM> To: Oliver-Rainer Wittmann - Software Engineer - Sun Microsystems <Oliver-Rainer.Wittmann@Sun.COM> References: <49466158.9090409@sun.com> Hi, OOo Writer would not be able to handle a list of editors. The related fields would always display the last editor. But it might make sense to have such a list just for documentation purposes.
