Subject: Re: [office] How can we move forward with OFFICE-3750?


hi Regina,

your issue sounded vaguely familiar, but i was remembering a different one:

https://issues.oasis-open.org/browse/OFFICE-4110

oddly, somehow it not have a "Fix version" set.

i guess we tried everything for that one and the resolution is obvious, perhaps we should discuss it in the next call.

Hi members,

this refers to issue https://issues.oasis-open.org/browse/OFFICE-3750:
spec and implementation not aligned for angle format in draw:transform, skewX/skewY

The applications I know of that support the ODF file format use the angles in the draw:transform attribute in radians. How can we determine if there are applications that actually use degrees?

There is our mailing list "opendocument-users" which may help. We could post a poll there. How many people are subscribed to the list? We could additionally post on the "office-comment" mailing list.

perhaps that could be useful.

We could use the list of applications in Wikipedia and try to reach the developers of those applications.

or try some of them out manually, but i guess it's not always possible and some are hard to get or defunct.

Or we change the specification from degree to radian and try to compromise only when developers complain. There is enough time before the final release of a new version of the standard to respond to complaints.

What do you think?

i'm generally of the opinion that unless we actually find an application that implemented what is specified, we adjust the specification to what has been implemented.

It is a general problem, not only with OFFICE-3750. That's why I'm writing to the list rather than as a comment on the issue.

Kind regards,
Regina

regards,
 michael
