Subject: RE: [office] office:version


It is OFFICE-3517.

Apparently the Components, Affects, and Fix fields were cleared and so the issue fell off the radar.  I moved it to Applied state.

Subject: [office] office:version

Patrick, all,

when making the last few changes for the CSD06 Rev02 drafts I've noticed that the following paragraphs have been deleted from 19.388 office:version:



	An OpenDocument 1.2 consumer may process a document that does not provide the office:version attribute or where the value of the office:version attribute is not "1.2" as if it is an OpenDocument 1.2 document. Any elements and attributes that are neither recognized, accepted, nor supported by the consumer, even though identified in XML namespaces defined for use in OpenDocument 1.2 documents, should be treated in accordance with the rules for foreign elements and attributes. 3.17

	*	Any elements and attributes based on earlier versions of OpenDocument for which the same-named OpenDocument 1.2 features are incompatible need not be accepted. If accepted, an OpenDocument 1.2-incompatible feature should be cast into an equivalent but OpenDocument 1.2-compatible form. See Appendix G, Changes From Previous Specification Versions (Non-Normative), as well as previous specifications and any approved errata for them. 

	*	Any elements and attributes that are neither recognized, accepted, nor supported by the consumer, even though identified in XML namespaces defined for use in OpenDocument 1.2 documents, should be treated in accordance with the rules for foreign elements and attributes. 3.17

	Subsequent processing should be as if the accepted document were exactly the OpenDocument 1.2 document derived in this way

I could not find the issue that caused this change (that's why I write this mail), but anyway are in favor of this change. This has two reasons: 

The bullet list should have been already deleted in CSD06 when applying http://tools.oasis-open.org/issues/browse/OFFICE-2755. So, the deletion requested by this issue was only partially applied to CSD06. It is fully applied now, and that's of course good. The last paragraph is not mentioned in OFFICE-2755, but it of course does not make sense if the bullet list is deleted.

The first paragraph has been added with OFFICE-2755. But it is regarding how ODF 1.2 consumers should behave when reading ODF 1.1. documents. In the context of 

http://tools.oasis-open.org/issues/browse/OFFICE-3470

we agreed that it is not reasonable to mention ODF 1.1 processing in the ODF 1.2 specification. It therefore is reasonable to delete it as well.

Best regards

Michael
