The "info fields" from the old "user defined" page are not with us anymore and instead of this we now get the "custom properties". ODF stores them as "meta:user-defined" and so did OOo with the former "info fields". > 2. Related: when custom props replace user defined, what is the > migration strategy, chapter 2. "Info fields" always have been stored as "meta:user-defined meta" in ODF anyway (in fact ODF does not know "info fields" at all). And some unbelievable magic tried to map the right ones back to info fields on loading. I never stressed this magic enough to find out how flawed it is. :-) At least as there was no UI to add other meta:user-defined than those magic 4, we didn't see problems here. But I expect that if more meta:user-defined had been added manually, OOo would confuse the "info fields" a bit. So no migration necessary.
