Type detection for unpacked documents
-------------------------------------
The TC discussed how the type (i.e. text, spreadsheet, etc.) of 
documents that are not contained in a package but in a plain file could 
be detected. In the OpenOffice.org format, this could be done by 
checking the <office:document> element's "office:class" attribute. This 
attribute has been removed, because it has become obsolete by adding the 
genre elements (i.e. <office:text>, <office:spreadsheet>, etc.) inside 
the <office:body> element. For this reason, a type detection by checking 
the root element is not possible any longer, but it is required to read 
documents until the genre element is found.

The resolve this issue, the TC unanimously agreed to add an 
"office:mimetype" attribute to the <office:document> element. It's 
values are the MIME types that are used for the packaged variant of 
office documents.
