*Patrick:*  https://issues.oasis-open.org/browse/OFFICE-4030

*Patrick:*  Regina - thought about how LO handles tables and sections - suggest not to try to make anything in the standard to LO - take the text from section and table properties as they are - as in ODF 1.3. shift changes on tables and sections to ODF 1.5

*Regina Henschel:*  Appendix E: "The writing-mode attribute of a section style specifies the layout direction of section columns (left-to-right or right-to-left) for text sections that have the section style assigned. If the attribute value is page the layout direction is inherited from the layout direction of the closest layout object (section, table, table-cell or text-box) in which the section is contained, and which has a layout direction other than page."

*Regina Henschel:*  Appendix E: "The writing-mode attribute of a table style specifies the layout direction of table cells (left-to-right or right-to-left) for tables that have the table style assigned. If the attribute value is page the layout direction is inherited from the layout direction of the closest layout object (section, table, table-cell or text-box) in which the table is contained, and which has a layout direction other than page."

*Patrick:*  style:table-cell-properties - page 9 - appendix has a copy from table and not usable.

*Patrick:*  specifies a layout directing ? -> specifies a layout ?

*Patrick:*  elements in the cell have style assigned with writing mode page?

*Regina Henschel:*  The style:writing-mode attribute of a <style:table-cell-properties> element specifies a layout directing for those child elements in the cell, which have a style assigned with writing mode page and for which the table cell is the closest containing layout object.

*Patrick:*  layout directing -> layout direction

*Patrick:*  The style:writing-mode attribute of a <style:table-cell-properties> element specifies a layout direction for those child elements in the cell, which have a style assigned with writing mode page.

*Francis Cave:*  The style:writing-mode attribute of a <style:table-cell-properties> element specifies the layout direction for any child element of the cell that has a style assigned with writing mode page.

*Patrick:*  list can have a paragraph child of a list item

*Francis Cave:*  The style:writing-mode attribute of a <style:table-cell-properties> element specifies a layout direction for any descendant element of the cell that has a style assigned with writing mode page and for which the table cell is the closest containing layout object on which the layout direction is specified.

*Patrick:*  Francis's last sentence accepted by consent

*Patrick:*  Regina- Need to write a new appendix E - by someone else

*Patrick:*  Patrick - will take a cut at new Appendix E.
