My concerns about the usage of the word "Core" is that it automatically raises the question: "What is not in the core?". If the anwser to this question is simply "Extensions", I don't see a particular problem with this. > I do remember the process which brought about the conformance classes > of OOXML - which addressed how to deal with a growing appendix of > deprecated features.

Yes, I was not trying to say that the conformance-classes in IS29500 are the same (or designed) as the ones proposed in ODF 1.2. I was trying to make the point that they bring the same intrinsic problem to the table: "how will applications deal with them?" and "Will end users have a predictable way of interpreting the conformance claims?" -- Jesper Lund Stocholm www.idippedut.dk SC34/WG4 http://www.itscj.ipsj.or.jp/sc34/wg4/
