dear QA people. it has come to my attention that a bunch of ODF validation bugs were mis-handled variously this week.
please note: 1. these bugs are about ODF files that LO writes that are not valid according to the OASIS ODF specification; whether or not LO or any other application can open the bugdoc without apparent loss of content is not at all relevant and does not merit closing the bug 2. there should be one bug for each invalid element or attribute that is written; these are most likely caused by entirely unrelated bugs in the export filter, and resolving all of them as duplicate is about as helpful as resolving all crash bugs as duplicate of a single "LO crashes" bug 3. http://opendocumentfellowship.com/validator appears to support only ODF 1.0 which makes it useless 4. apparently the only known web instance of the ODF Toolkit ODF validator is currently down; therefore i've built the thing from source and uploaded it here[1], you can run it via "java -jar odfvalidator*.jar odf-file-or-directory..."; please note it defaults to the "conforming" mode for 1.2 files so set your Office to version "1.2" without extensions, or use "-e" option ("extended conforming") 5. please add "odf odf_validation" to the whiteboard if a validation bug doesn't have these yet thanks, michael [1] http://people.freedesktop.org/~mst/odfvalidator-1.1.6-incubating-SNAPSHOT-jar-with-dependencies.jar _______________________________________________ List Name: Libreoffice-qa mailing list Mail address: Libreoffice-qa@lists.freedesktop.org Change settings: http://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice-qa Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://lists.freedesktop.org/archives/libreoffice-qa/
