You have to be able to ask your coworkers for their changes to be able to merge them into your copy. I have explained this in the earlier mentioned ACM paper the end of last year. It had been uploaded for free access at: <a href="https://github.com/tdf/odftoolkit/blob/master/docs/docs/presentations/2019%20-%20ACM%20DocEng%20-%20The_Next_Millennium_Document_Format.pdf">https://github.com/tdf/odftoolkit/blob/master/docs/docs/presentations/2019%20-%20ACM%20DocEng%20-%20The_Next_Millennium_Document_Format.pdf</a> If someone is curious, I have even made the effort to summarize all my painful experiences and resulting ideas in two talks at the XML conference in Prague this year (I was lucky I was able to attend FOSDEM and XML Prague before Corona). The first talk is about improving XML in general and is more about my painful journey in the past 20 years (started 1999 at StarOffice), while the second talk builds on top of the first, drafting a solution for the named problems: * #1 Slide: <a href="https://www.xmlprague.cz/day2-2020/#xmlpp">https://www.xmlprague.cz/day2-2020/#xmlpp</a> * #1 Video: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pLwH4q-R55M">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pLwH4q-R55M</a> * #2 Slide:<a href="https://www.xmlprague.cz/day3-2020/#nmdf">https://www.xmlprague.cz/day3-2020/#nmdf</a> * #2 Video:<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dkTflH3yQZE">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dkTflH3yQZE</a> Regarding the upcoming work on the ODF Toolkit, Sebastian and I, have written in 3 days an "experience report proposal" - but we drafted only the problem to have a short talk at their conference to ask for feed-back instead explaining a full solution like in a real paper. In other words, it was refused - it was indeed a bit shallow ;-) - but might help to outline what we have in mind. NOTE: Only the third part is related to ODF, you might want to skip the first two: <a href="https://drive.google.com/file/d/1BZhOHgH58w2WWeyOdJc1M5o_Mz1MxjXR/view?usp=sharing">https://drive.google.com/file/d/1BZhOHgH58w2WWeyOdJc1M5o_Mz1MxjXR/view?usp=sharing</a></pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
