Hi Dave,

I think interoperability test suites make sense.  To have a set of 
"reference" documents that we want to make sure all ODF clients can 
correctly parse & render.

I leave it to others more expert in this (e.g. those on the TC list) to 
speak to what work is going on in that space.


Regards,

Peter
