Subject: [OASIS Issue Tracker] Created: (OFFICE-3496) OpenFormulaConformance Clause 2.2.2(I) Seems Misplaced
OpenFormula Conformance Clause 2.2.2(I) Seems Misplaced ------------------------------------------------------- Key: OFFICE-3496 URL: http://tools.oasis-open.org/issues/browse/OFFICE-3496 Project: OASIS Open Document Format for Office Applications (OpenDocument) TC Issue Type: Bug Components: Conformance, Needs Discussion, OpenFormula Affects Versions: ODF 1.2 CD 05 Reporter: Dennis Hamilton Assignee: Dennis Hamilton Fix For: ODF 1.2 CD 06 In the Conformance Clause for Small Group Evaluators, there is this particular clause 2.2.2(I): """ I)It shall support international characters for named expression identifiers. Note: This specification does not mandate a user interface for international characters, so a resource-constrained application may choose to not show the traditional glyph (e.g., it may show the [UNICODE] numeric code instead). """ Problem #1: The Note is not about OpenFormula evaluators but what a hosting-specification and its implementations might provide for. The note should be removed, especially since it includes normative-provision language ("may"). Problem #2: "international characters" is not a defined concept. The syntax for named expression identifiers seems to be quite explicit. Although there are many notes in section 5.11, there is a potential conflict with the rules for case-sensitive names that must not be case-insensitive confused and some other non-note provisions. Problem #3: The resolution of named expressions is clearly a host-dependent behavior (and the host-dependent behaviors that are tacit in section 5.11 need to be made explicitly host-dependent and simplified), so which uses of Unicode characters match with host-provided named expressions need not be resolved here. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA. - If you think it was sent incorrectly contact one of the administrators: http://tools.oasis-open.org/issues/secure/Administrators.jspa - For more information on JIRA, see: http://www.atlassian.com/software/jira
