ESC, TDF Board, *, LibreOffice's support for the Chinese national standard for XML documents was added to the OOo CWS mid-2006 and seems to comply with just a portion of the UOF V1.0 standard--it is a flat XML implementation.
Technical comparison between UOF v1.0 and ODF packaged XML is in a note for a contemporary Java AWT based GUI ODF-UOF Converter project on Source forge: http://sourceforge.net/projects/odf-to-uof/files/ODF-UOF%20v1.0/ODF-UOF-comparison/ODF-UOF-comparison-doc.zip/download Since then, the Chinese Office suite development by the likes of RedFlag 2000 (defunct), KingSoft, YozoSoft and CS2C with state sponsorship and academic research have refined the UOF national "standard" into a version 2.0 Our UOF 1.0 Import/Export filters seem to have never been completed, and no longer seem to be doing the job of handling interoperability with current documents (see fdo#50430, fdo#73292), but finding technical details of the emerging standard has been beyond me. So, anyone on the ESC or the TDF board have an opinion of what to do in LibreOffice regards UOF? Abandon it and concede to provide no interoperability support for Chinese users? Should filters be removed from core and repackaged as an extension to externally provide document conversion? Stuart =-=-= As an aside, to keep OOXML relevant, Microsoft has partnered with Beihang University and Beijing Information Science & Technology University with PRC state sponsorship to develop efficient, .NET or Web, based external conversion of UOF and OOXML--the Sourcforge hosted project is nominally OpenSource (BSD like license). The project site is here: http://uof-translator.sourceforge.net/ and source is available for review. -- View this message in context: http://nabble.documentfoundation.org/UOF-v2-0-the-PRC-national-XML-standard-for-Chinese-Office-documents-what-to-do-with-it-in-LibreOffic-tp4128745.html Sent from the Dev mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ LibreOffice mailing list LibreOffice@lists.freedesktop.org http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice
