Hi all,


Thank you very much for your replies!


The draft SVG looks, obviously, quite similar to the official ODF logo, which triggers two follow-up questions:

1) Are there any plans to make ORA ODF-compliant? Alan Horkan has demonstrated that it takes only minimal additions to an ORA file to let an ODF-supporting programme open it as an ODG file (http://alanhorkan.livejournal.com/59192.html).

2) Do you plan to hand over the development of ORA to a body like OASIS once it has reached maturity?


For those who can read German, the next issue of the Swiss "Publisher" magazine will include a column asking for open and XML-based file standards in the publishing industry to enable competition (and I explicitly mentioned ORA and SVG). It will also comprise an article on G'MIC. The articles will be available for free on www.publisher.ch once the print edition has been shipped (presumably by mid-October).


Kind regards,


Christoph
