Errors in ODF 1.4 WD-02

[regina-henschel]

• 1.3 Terminology, Part 1. There is an "Error: Reference source not found" for the reference "nref-isoiec"

[regina-henschel]

• Appendix A, Part 3. There is a gray section "The table:tab-color attribute ...", which should not be there.
• Appendix B, Part 3. There is a gray section "The table:tab-color attribute ...", which should not be there.

And same in other parts of the Appendix

[regina-henschel]

• Appendix C, Part 3. Table 26 is wider than the body text area.

An entry for the ISO/IEC Directives was originally included in 1.4 Normative References. The Directives should not be referenced normatively, as they are not in themselves a standard. I suggest downgrading this paragraph to a Note and simply re-wording as follows:

Note: Within the normative text of this specification, the terms "shall", "shall not", "should", "should not", "may" and “need not” are to be interpreted as described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.

This is consistent with the form of words that are included in the Foreword of all ISO/IEC standards (and will in any case be added to the ISO/IEC edition of ODF 1.4):

International Standards are drafted in accordance with the rules given in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2.

Bizarre! Either the XSLT scripts used for generating text from the schema are at fault, or there is a styling issue. I will investigate.

This appears to be as a result of a combination of the way that the XSLT scripts are determining where to put the generated text (preceding a heading styled 'Heading 1') and the way that 'Appendix Heading 1' is defined (based on 'Heading 1'). I'll fix the XSLT for the next run.

On further investigation, the generated text is already in the master change-tracked version, so is the result of an old error - and appears to have gone un-noticed in the published text of ODF 1.3!! Something to include in an Errata document?

Fixed in the master change-tracked version.

• Appendix C, Part 3. Table 26 is wider than the body text area.

This appears to be true of a large proportion of tables. Do we really need to fix this?

I also note that the table identifiers in the LO Navigator pane bear no relation to the Table numbers in the document. Does this matter?

Appendix G, Part 3. "Error:Reference source not found" for reference

* [ ]  "property-style:writing-mode-general"

* [ ]  "attribute-draw:decorative"

* [ ]  "attribute-text:condition-general"

These have all been fixed in the master change-tracked version and also in the 'csd01' versions.

Appendix G, Part 3: Paragraph break missing between the two entries for text:start-value.

Fixed in the master change-tracked version.

I have found broken cross-reference links in Part 4, and will fix those in the master tracked version.

I have found various issues in Part 3:

• Incorrect cross-reference to 20.442 tab:tab-color (probably caused by moving this property from chapter 19)
• New properties draw:allow-overlap and draw:decorative not included in generated text, i.e. not listed under the elements that use these properties (probably a reference naming issue, but could be an issue with the XSLT for generating this text)
• Incorrect styling of cross-references in 19.15.1.

These issues have been addressed in the latest commit of the master tracked version of Part 3.
