ODF11i-Cons, minimal number of characters in password
-----------------------------------------------------

                 Key: OIC-31
                 URL: http://tools.oasis-open.org/issues/browse/OIC-31
             Project: OASIS Open Document Format Interoperability and Conformance (OIC) TC
          Issue Type: Improvement
          Components: ODF11-InteropProfile
    Affects Versions: Working Draft
            Reporter: Andrew Rist
            Assignee: Bart Hanssens
            Priority: Minor


wd4 contains a clause on requiring ODF11i-Cons to be able to open encrypted files with a password of 1 character.

One can think of this as promoting weak security, users should set passwords with a reasonable length and difficulty.

OTOH, most ODF files don't have a password anyway, and users can also insecure dictionary words like "password", so for a *consumer* it'll probably OK to be able to open such a document.
