Hi all, In the coming releases we plan to add new features to extensions. For example, a way to display a license file, versioning etc. These features would not work with an older office although the extension itself could still work. For example, an extension contains a license file which should be displayed to the user during installation. When this extension is being installed with an old version of OOo, then the extension may still be usable, but the license will not be displayed because the feature was not implemented then. If the developer of an extension wants that the user must agree to the license, then she/he needs a way to prevent the extension from working with an older OOo.
Therefore we could introduce new media types for the contents of the extension, which are only understood by a new version of OOo. This would affect these types: application/vnd.sun.star.uno-component application/vnd.sun.star.uno-typelibrary application/vnd.sun.star.basic-library application/vnd.sun.star.dialog-library application/vnd.sun.star.configuration-data application/vnd.sun.star.configuration-schema application/vnd.sun.star.package-bundle-description We could add a kind of version id to the name. For example: application/vnd.sun.star.uno-component2 If you have another idea how to achieve this then let us know.
