I see these problems with part 2:

Error: Link has file extension .odf instead of .odt in item 'Latest 
Version'.

Suggestion: Set the link to the zip-container instead of a single (not 
normative) html file, in section 'Related work'.

Error: The text in section 'Status' is still about working draft. That 
needs to be changed.

Error: The reference "Related Work" is lost. It is used in Appendix 
A.1., A.2. and B

And some suggestions in regard to typography:

Suggestion: Add paragraph style with parent "Normal" for single change 
items in the list in the appendix. It should have an left indent 
(similar to "Note"). Use paragraph "Normal" for the other texts in the 
appendix. It has a spacing above and below. Remove the empty lines.

Suggestion: Set all appendix headings of level 1 to paragraph style 
"Appendix Heading 1" and include that style into the TOC.

Suggestion: Remove the dot in field "After" in numbering style 
"Appendix". A dot after the numbering is typographically wrong for 
headings. Change the field "width of numbering" on tab "Position" in 
numbering style "Appendix" to a suitable value, so that the heading text 
has a nice distance from the numbering, likely something around 3,9cm. 
That way the text in second and third line will align to the text in the 
first line. Or if you do not like the large indent in second and third 
line, then increase value in field "Minimum space between numbering and 
text" instead.

Suggestion: Increase the value in field "Minimum space between numbering 
and text" for all used levels in the chapter numbering dialog. That way 
you get a distance between numbering and text in a heading. A value of 
0.2cm should be enough.

Suggestion: Set font color of character style "Index Link" to blue, so 
that the blue color for the link survives edit and update of TOC.

Patrick: In case indent does not work as expected, it is likely, that 
the paragraph has some numbering assigned. Set cursor in paragraph and 
use Format > Bullet and Numbering. Then in the dialog click on button 
"Remove". If that button is not enabled, then the problem is something else.

We should clean up all the styles in the document for ODF 1.4.

Kind regards
