    Details

    • Type: Bug
    • Status: Applied
    • Priority: Blocker
    • Resolution: Fixed
    • Affects Version/s: ODF 1.0
    • Fix Version/s: ODF 1.0 Errata 02
    • Component/s: Text
    • Labels:
      None
    • Environment:

      This issue applies to ODF 1.0/1.1/IS 26300 and how ODF 1.0 Errata CD04 proposes to respond to defect item N1309:10.

    • Proposal:
      Hide

      1. Ensure that the statement in ODF 1.2 Part 1 is satisfactory with regard to the use of element-only content and and that there is no contradiction of [XML 1.0]. This is mainly accomplished, although further simplification is called for in later comments on OFFICE-1211.

      2. Transpose the ODF 1.2 simplification to ODF 1.0 via Errata CD05.

      This is in line with the proposal in OFFICE-2207. It is necessary to carry it out thoroughly after ensuring that the ODF 1.2 simplification is satisfactory.

      Replace the entire section and title with the following:
      "1.6 White Space Processing
      Treatment of whitespace characters is in conformance with the provisions of [XML 1.0]. In addition OpenDocument processors shall ignore white space characters occurring in elements with element-only content. For any other element, all white space characters shall be processed, unless the description of the element within this specification declares specific rules for the handling of white space characters. See, for example, section 5.1.1."

      This issue objects to the Errata 01 CD04 approach to resolution of defect item N1309:10 (OFFICE-2207). This issue has two parts:

      1. Potential conflicting statements between ODF 1.0/1.1/IS 26300 section 1.6 and [XML 1.0] best resolved by removal of potentially-conflicting text from section 1.6.

      2. Challenging the use of element content or element-only content where the only differentiation of such elements is related to how elements are specified in a DTD.

      An additional consideration is ensuring that the resolution of this in Errata for pre-1.2 versions is reconciled with any statement in ODF 1.2 (currently ODF 1.2 Part 1 CD04-rev09 section 3.18).
