Feedback to the ODF TC

["Dave Pawson" <dave.pawson@gmail.com>]

Classic example of vague untestable unclear statements.
http://docs.oasis-open.org/office/v1.1/OS/OpenDocument-v1.1-html/OpenDocument-v1.1.html
search for para 2.4.1 (since the table of contents fails to link to
the stated targets)

The config:name attribute identifies the name of the setting
container. For top level <config:config-item-set> elements, that are
elements that are direct children of the <office:settings> element,
the name should be preceded by a namespace prefix that identifies the
application the settings belong to.

1. The config:name attribute identifies the name of the setting container.
A statement, not a requirement
2. the name should be preceded by a namespace prefix that identifies
the application the settings belong to.

No indication of which prefix aligns to which application (I might
guess the intention is to use 'spreadsheet|drawing|text document', but
it would be a guess.
Asking for a namespace prefix to be resolved from an attribute value?
No indication of what syntax to use for 'name' (in xml terms).


This is why the TC needs to be able to feed these examples back to the
main TC for cleanup.
This should be a deliverable.
