[From the OIC TC 2010-06-02 Meeting Minutes]

ACTION ITEM: Rob and/or Dennis will exchange mail/posts and have a proposed approach for review at the next OIC TC meeting.  We want to keep it simple, to use the changes identified in ODF 1.2 CD05 Appendix G as a starter, and to have a straightforward way to compile and organize the appropriate test documents.  It will be easy to subdivide the effort and to elicit input and suggestions from the ODF community.

BACKGROUND: It is proposed that we arrange to compile very simple ODF 1.2 documents that exhibit a changed or new provision in ODF 1.2.  These simple documents can be simple ways to assess (1) how ODF 1.2 implementations respect the particular case and (2) how ODF 1.1 implementations are able to consume the document in some degraded manner if at all.

These are not meant to be comprehensive.  Trial consumption of the documents will serve as probes to see where interoperability is successful, where it is imperfect, and where it fails.  The test documents need to be valid ODF 1.2, but there need not be elaborate definitions, test assertions, or anything particularly formal for the documents to be valuable in assessments.  ... 

For timing, we discussed having initial materials for the next Plugfest, in October, and perhaps having an opportunity to discuss the approach and what is becoming available in conjunction with the ODF Track at OO.o 2010.  Also, even this breadth-first approach to finding any 1.1-1.2 interoperability breakdowns will provide greater detail for a future "State of Interoperability" report.
