Subject: RE: [office] How about an interoperability Subcommittee?


Title: 邮件
Yes, this proposed TC is aimed to interop at semantic level. In other side, UOML TC is aimed to interop at layout level for visible use.
Thanks Peter for introducing IDABC research project. I'd like to hear the future progress of that project.

Thanks, Peter, I had not heard of the IDABC research project.

There are also discussions within OASIS on a new TC to investigate document standards interoperability.  See http://lists.oasis-open.org/archives/tc-announce/200704/msg00007.html

This new OASIS proposal is more aligned to interop between ODF, DocBook, DITA and related formats..  Although these formats are not at the same level of presentation abstraction, there should be meaningful level of interop at the structural and perhaps semantic level (with ODF 1.2 metadata perhaps).

So I think my proposed subcommittee could help with that as well.
