Hello Juergen,

Thank you for your previous mail.

If I create a CMIS UCP for OpenOffice:
What are the functions it is expected to have?

As in open/close/modify are the basic functions it is supposed to have.
But, modify to what extent?

My questions might be too basic. Sorry.
I would like to access the source code of previously made UCP's.
Where can I find them?
