<p class="title">XML based filters in OpenOffice.org</p>
<p class="by">Svante Schubert</p>
</div>
<div class="content">
<p>The editing of XML content with OpenOffice.org is a frequent requested task
of users. But to be able to edit solely the content and not the XML as a simple
textfile, a filter has to be established.</p>
<p>This session should give a quick overview over the existing functionality
OpenOffice.org offers to establish such a filter, giving powerful examples.
But also giving scenarios showing the current limitations to finally offer
ideas to the community to broaden the functionality.</p>

<p class="title">OpenDocument/ISO/IEC 26300: The Present and the Future</p>
<p class="by">Michael Brauer</p>
</div>
<div class="content">
<p>The &ldquo;OASIS Open Document Format for Office Applications (OpenDocument)
&rdquo; (also known as ODF) was recently approved as ISO and IEC International
Standard ISO/IEC 26300, and its adoption is accelerating day by day.</p>
<p>This presentation provides an overview of recent development in the OpenDocument
space. It is divided into two parts. In the first part. it provides an inside
into the work of the OpenDocument TC in the last two years. It introduces the
charters and work programs of the new Accessibilty, Formula and Metadata subcommittees
and reveals what the future plans of the TC and its subcommittees for OpenDocument are.</p>
<p>In the second part, the presentation throws a glance on the adoption of
OpenDocument. It shows which national and local public bodies have already
adopted OpenDocument, and where an adoption is in progress. The second part
further introduces organizations and groups that provide assistance to parties
that are interested in adopting OpenDocument and lists resources that provide
further information regarding OpenDocument.</p>

<p class="title">A Technical Comparison: ISO/IEC 26300 vs Microsoft
Office Open XML (Ecma International TC45 OOXML WD 1.3)</p>
<p class="by">Robert Weir</p>
</div>
<div class="content">
<p>Two XML office file formats have been pressing upon our attention,
the OASIS OpenDocument Format, recently standardized by ISO, and the
Draft Ecma Office Open XML. This presentation will review history
of each, the process that created them, and examine each format to
compare and contrast how they deal with issues such extensibility,
modularization, expressivity, performance, reuse of standards,
programability, ease of use, and application/OS neutrality.</p>

<p class="title">Innovation Opportunities with ODF XML</p>
<p class="by">Douglas Heintzman</p>
</div>
<div class="content">
<p>Today, the ODF XML technology standard for document data is most closely
associated with office application suites that provide an alternative to
MS-Office. But ODF as an XML technology opens the gates for new programmatic
access to the document data held within. Previously, the value of document
data was by and large unrealized due to the closed nature of today&rsquo;s
predominant office application suite. All this is about to change.</p>
<p>This presentation will illustrate how ODF XML, and related open programming
technologies can benefit new types of solutions that effectively re-define how
documents, and the data contained within may participate in the context of
business processes, their workflows and transactions. These new solutions may
be deployed directly on the Internet and accessed by multiple runtimes: industry
standard Web browsers, an Eclipse-based rich client platform runtime, or directly
from an ODF editor runtime such as OpenOffice, KOffice, Sun Star Office or IBM
Workplace. Users will be able to collaborate and interact with document data in
ways never before possible. Brief demonstrations will be included.</p>
