Hi,

yes, it makes more sense to "adapt
ODF 1.2"
But it also make sense to "consider
a corresponding adoption (of received comment) for the next version of
ODF" from my point of view.

Let us see, if we can get feedback from
a native speaker


Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Best regards

yes, and we (the TC) don't "adopt" ODF 1.2 because we define
it, which
means we can "adapt" it to new requirements.

agree completely, it's very insignificant, not worth any significant delay.
