Hello all

some thoughts and questions about CWS ooxml02:

1) I noticed that you changed filter names and file type names in the configuration (module filter). This is not a good idea as these names can be considered public API. These strings may be used in macros and other programs to use a specific filter for loading/saving a file. So, changing the names may break existing macros, even if the new names may look more consistent. I decided to "start" a new naming scheme for the OOXML filters after some chat with other collegues, so there is a meaning behind the new names. The leading application name before the filter name (e.g. "Calc MS Excel 2007 XML") denotes that the filter is part of the application Calc, while the missing application name before the file type name (e.g. "MS Excel 2007 XML") denotes something existing outside OOo, namely the XML file format invented by MS. I would like to change all old filter/type names but cannot do this for the same reason as above...

2) What is the new STREAM_FOR_OUTPUT for, that is added besides the OUTPUT_STREAM in the media descriptor? Additionally all XOutputStream's in oox/core have been changed to XStream.
