The format is xml, you can see main/instsetoo_native/util/update.xml
it seems to support also an update feed format:
http://openoffice.org/projects/installation/sources/webcontent/show/testarea/onlineupdate
There should be an specification somewhere, but the old site
http://specs.openoffice.org has become rather broken after the
migration.
I would expect that it is similar to the xml format for the extensions.
I have never looked in detail in it, I have only noticed the Url in
openoffice.lst when I have changed some others.
I think the update service is a very useful one and we should try to
reestablish this service. Ok many users don't like such "call home"
features but that's the reason why it is configurable.
