Subject: Re: [office-accessibility] Requested editorial change to Appendix E inthe ODF 1.1 specification
Hi Mary, The change we would like to make is a small clarification change in the non-normative portion of the document - Appendix E. Separately from Michael (who I believe has left work for the day in Germany) I understand that if the document doesn't go out today, we miss our timeline. I believe this change can be made within the 60 day public review (as an editorial change, especially as it is non-normative). So, I suggest you do NOT delay, but go ahead with PR this afternoon. Rich - is this acceptable to you? Peter > I was about to announce the PR this afternoon ...
