Hi,

I went through the OpenAttribute extension carefully but I couldn't find a
signification improvement to done which suits to a GSOC project.
If you have any further improvements needs done to OpenAttribute, please let
me know.

Since of the above reason I am thinking of selecting some other idea to work
on.

I thought "Improving LibreOffice/OpenOffice plugin" project idea is suitable
for a GSOC project since there are lists of bugs needs to be fixed and new
features to be implemented.

Thank you
