Hi Charles and all. What do you say to the below wordings? (fast translated from Danish - so don't mind the Danglish).
Please have in mind that it's very important for me that what I write now is not later "overruled" in e.g., a press release or such. Cheers, Leif Question 2: *Which of the standards (mentioned by name, version number and Amendment) are supported by the application?* Answer: The file format for text documents, spreadsheets and presentations in LibreOffice is OASIS ODF 1.2, Committee Draft 06, with a few extensions. These expansions are part of the ongoing work in the constantly progress in standardization and the extensions will be considered and approved by OASIS and subsequently submitted to ISO for ratification. LibreOffice can read and write ODF 1.0 and 1.1 documents. LibreOffice partially supports ISO / IEC 29500. Question 3: *This implementation is in full compliance with that standard or has been only partial implementation.* Answer: Implementation of the support for ODF is, in our belief in complete accordance with the specifications mentioned above. Support for ISO / IEC 29500 is carried out in a way with focus on those parts who ahve actually been implemented by others (Microsoft Office). Some details of the specification has never been implemented in Microsoft Office and other details has been implemented incorrectly. In LibreOffice, we have chosen to implement the format of Microsoft Office because we consider Microsoft Office as the reference implementation. Support for Microsoft Office 2007 formats is merely designed two meet customer needs in order to read and edit existing documents in t format – e.g., whenexchang ing documents with others. It has never been an explicit goal to support an academic standard, and we can therefore not guarantee an implementation that is completely in accordance to the specifications. LibreOffice intend - when possible - to support the approved standards in full, including ISO / IEC 29500. -- E-mail to [email protected] for instructions on how to unsubscribe List archives are available at http://www.documentfoundation.org/lists/steering-discuss/ All messages you send to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
