We do not currently have a work item to create errata for ODF 1.1. 

Since there is no version of ODF 1.1 in JTC1, I'd suggest that we want 
something like this to occur:

At some suitable cut-off date, JTC1 process an amendment to ISO/IEC 26300 
which includes material from the following:

1) Changes made in OASIS ODF 1.1 (accessibility fixes, etc.)
2) Changes made in OASIS ODF 1.0 Errata 01 (Murata-san's first defect 
report)
3) Changes made in OASIS ODF 1.0 Errata 02 (Murata-san's second defect 
report, plus possibly others)
4) Changes made in OASIS ODF 1.0 Errata 03 (Whatever else we need to 
address)

Obviously, any OASIS Approved Errata which have been already converted 
into in approved Technical Corrigenda would not need to be reconsidered in 
the amendment.  But there is the distinct possibility that some Approved 
Errata will be unprocessed at the point when you decide to do the 
amendment.  So you need to be prepared to handle it either way.

This amended ODF 1.1 could then be adopted by OASIS as "ODF 1.1 (second 
edition)".  It would be too much for us to process as Approved Errata, but 
we could submit it to an OASIS ballot for a "second edition".

This is just a suggestion of a possible route.  Frances and Patrick will 
need to work out the details.
