WW8 is just WinWord 8, i.e. what Microsoft calls [MS-DOC], using ww8
to refer to xls/ppt is misleading.

Maybe just use the extension for all the cases? That's easy to
understand for everyone, unlike WW8, OOXML, ODF, and others.

BTW, Joel: I have no problem with whiteboard renames, though if you
could please:

1) Send a mail to this list when you did rename them and

2) Do it with a script, so for the casual developer the rename is more
or less atomic

That would be excellent and make our lives much easier. :-)

Hi Miklos,

I mis-wrote in my last email, as i only do writer bug triaging, so
luckily ww8 hasnt been used to mislead anyone. :)

Hi Joel  all,

I have been using ww8 to cover all the doc/xls/etc. as i saw Stahl use
it in one of his comments. I saw Joren using odf, so i've been using
that sometimes. I dont see much benefit in breaking odf down into
individual odf extensions as we can already limit queries by application.

 Hi All,
 
 Including dev list on this because I know developers are using the
 whiteboard status' to do queries so I wanted to give you all the chance
 to voice opinions.
 
 Currently we are not consistent with whiteboard status' and I'd like to
 update these so that we are. There are two blaring examples:
 
 1. Capitals - we use CamelCase when there is more than one word but when
 there is one (ex. bibisected) it's in lower case. Not a huge deal but
 if there are no objections, I'd like to move forward with just using
 capitals to start a word (ex. Bibisected, Interoperability) - I
 don't think this will screw up searches on FDO. I won't be going back to
 fix all the old ones (at least not yet) but moving forward consistency
 is nice.
 
 2. Filters - currently we're not terribly consistent here. I'd like to
 propose that everything move to Filter:XXX, this would replace
 rtf_filter for instance with Filter:rtf. I'd also like to do this for
 groups of filters (ex. Filters:ooxml). This way we can just have
 Filter:doc or Filter:ooxml or Filter:odt, or Filter:html.
 
 --Is there a similar filter that covers all of the doc/xls/etc...?
 
 Thoughts appreciated. I'll update the wiki when I get enough feedback to
 feel comfortable doing so :)
 
 
 Best,
 Joel
