I agree with Oliver that it is INVALID. This means using metadata in valid ODF files as a way of discriminating against the producer. That sucks. The generator marker is explicitly not for this purpose.
How unsupported features are dealt with when opening such a file is a different matter and a much larger issue. It also arises with documents from up-level versions of the same product (even when all use the same version of ODF). The handling of extensions (i.e., not defined in ODF) from another producer raises similar considerations. It all depends on whether the extension-usage occurs in a document, not whether the document is from a particular producer. - Dennis -----Original Message----- From: Rob Weir [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Friday, March 02, 2012 08:09 To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [RELEASE] Bug 118037 - oo should warn opening/saving libreoffice files On Fri, Mar 2, 2012 at 8:14 AM, Oliver-Rainer Wittmann <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi, > > Issue 118037 - https://issues.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=118037 - should > be closed as WONTFIX or INVALID from my point of view.

That way it will still show up in BZ as a feature that someone might volunteer to implement in a future release. What is the convention for dealing with things like this? I agree it is "WONTFIX" for 3.4. But can't we just leave it open for possible fix in future releases? -Rob > Best regards, Oliver.
