Re: [office] The proposal:auto-play presentation file format has beenupdated by the New Proposal Form

Warren,

Sorry to be late response. I'm very busy in other work during these days.

Actually, I have no strong concern about the preferred view name, though I have a little feeling that "presentation" before "slide-show" seems extraneous. Besides the previous reason, another reason for my feeling is that I feel "slide-show" itself seems only applied to presentation, so there is no necessary to emphasize "presentation" again in the name.

If you still have strong concern about this, I suggest let's wait for another few days again, if no other members objection, I'll accept your suggested name "presentation-slide-show". I say so because this is an open community, everyone has right to accept or object any proposal.

But you know another thing that we need to consider about this proposal is the customized view mode name, how to define schema for that(like x-name or)? Anyone can help? On the other hand, for this problem, we can think about it from another perspective. That is, do we really need to define the customized view mode now, even we are unclear about what the future mode is? Why not put it aside now, and when some preferred view mode appears in the future, we add the definitive mode name again?

My point on the call yesterday was that the presentation-slide-show
value isn't to identify the type of document in the manifest. It is to
let the implementers of the standard know that this value can only be
applied to a presentation document. I don't see it as a problem that
the word presentation appears two times in the manifest:file-entry.
