Actually, the major and minor version are taken from the
<meta:generator> element that is described in section 3.1.1 of the
OpenDocument Specification:
http://www.oasis-open.org/committees/download.php/12573/OpenDocument-v1.0-os.sxw
Its content is specified as follows:
> The <meta:generator> element contains a string that identifies the
> application or tool that was used to create or last modify the XML
> document. This string SHOULD match the definition for user-agents in

> generator string SHOULD allow product versions to differ between all
> released versions of a user agent, for instance by including build ids
> or patch level information.

This means that "getBuildIDs()" may be used only to detect if a certain
file has been saved by an OpenOffice.org version that contained an issue
that caused the file to be non-conforming to the OpenDocument specification.
"getBuildIDs()" must not be used as a replacement for a version number
stored within files. In particular, it must not be used to change the
the interpretation of information stored in a file, or to alter
application behavior. An invalid use case of "getBuildIDs()" for
instance would be to change the default value for a certain property
based on the major and minor number returned by "getBuildIDs()".
In any case, "getBuildIDs()" should be used with care, and only if an
issue within the OpenDocument filter implementation cannot be resolved
without the knowledge which OOo version saved a document.

added

to class
SvXMLImport
/*Description*/
If the import property set contains the string property "BuildId" you
can use the new method getBuildIds() to get the major and minor
version of the office that generated the source xml document.
The method getBuildIds() returns true if the property is available and
after the meta.xml was importet. For a src680m125 f.e. you get rMaster
== 680 and rMinor == 125.
I have added the properties for Sc, Sd, Sw and Sch. This currently
does not work for embedded objects as they have no meta.xml
