We thought about this as well and came to the conclusion that an ODF Toolkit is much more than XML file processing. It is about defining an API (therefore, it could belong to the API project) as well as about a first reference implementation based on existing OOo code. And it is about attracting developers that have never seen (and do never want to see) OOo code, but want ODF in their applications. The XML (and all other) existing OOo code projects require at least some knowledge of OOo code and architecture in order to understand what's going on there. It simply is a strange world for those non-OOo developers.
The new project makes the connection between OOo and ODF crisp and clear, but we do not want every user of the toolkit to become an OOo expert. - Kai. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
