What I am missing is what "module" is ready for work or progression as 
Rob describes?

That is rather than discuss potential modules, let's have someone 
propose work that might make a good module to proceed at a different 
pace and see what happens.

If other parts of the standard aren't progressing as rapidly, perhaps 
that work should move out on its own.

I suppose I am looking for something more concrete than modularization 
as an idea. May be a very good idea but so far I haven't seen any 
dragging or rapidly proceeding parts for ODF 1.3/ODF-Next.

Hope you are having a great day!

Patrick
