Subject: ODF Adoption TC Call - July 11, 2006 - Minutes
Roll Call ======= Erwin Tenhumberg, Sun Microsystems Gary Edwards, ODF Alliance Waldo Bastian, Intel Louis Suarez-Potts, Individual (OpenOffice.org) Carol Geyer, OASIS Donald Harbison, IBM Alan Milnes, IBM Lotzi Bölöni, University of Central Florida Acceptance of minutes =================== The minutes from the meeting on 27th June 2006 were accepted without amendment. ODF Test Suite by the University of Central Florida ========================================== Lotzi Bölöni provided an overview of his work in collaboration with Intel. This was not really a Test Suite but a set of 300 documents highlighting all aspects of ODF, of which more than 200 have been developed. Application specific metadata was stripped out. The work can be seen at http://netmoc.cpe.ucf.edu/Projects/OpenDocument/TestSuite.html. The student involved is supported by Intel and Lotzi volunteers his time. Erwin encouraged Lotzi to feed back any issues to the ODF TC developing the specification. Erwin asked how can we build on this? One possibility would be to add this to the Google Summer of Code, another would be to create a focus area on XML.org. Microsoft's ODF announcement =========================== Erwin summarised this - on one hand it was great that there was a customer demand for ODF but we need to ensure that ODF is fully accepted as the standard by customers rather than being a fall-back. Need to have an easy summary of the various features of applications implemented in ODF supporting applications. This could highlight any issues / benefits with the various implementations. This could be a spreadsheet or a part of the XML web site (http://opendocument.xml.org/). Agreed that we should ensure that all product listings are there as a starting point. We will start with all representatives on the call making sure their companies products are listed. Carol is willing to contact other companies as needed. Progress on deliverables ===================== Erwin will move some of his content from the white paper onto the website. Open Office.org Conference ======================= Erwin noted that there would probably be an ODF track on the Wednesday only. Don asked if the round table would be going ahead - he noted that Bob Sutor needed to know very soon if he was to attend. The meeting was adjourned at this stage.
