Post by dudson »

Is there somewhere a timetable of the standardization of ODF 1.2?

When it will be an iso-standard?
When it was send to iso, etc...

ODF 1.2 is not approved OASIS specification, check it on OpenDocument TC page. Under documents you can find last draft version.
ISO approval can follow OASIS approval, but 1.1 vesrsion approved under OASIS, and not under ISO.

My question is actually WHEN it WILL be an approved OASIS specification.

On the OpenDocument TC page there is nothing mentioned of ODF 1.2 but I read somewhere that ODF 1.2 is already submitted to OASIS, or am I wrong?

OASIS is making 1.2 version it is in preliminary Draft7-10, and will be finished when ready, I have no more information.
 Edit: I found in OASIS minutes. for 2008.08.07.

It means, they not finished 1.2 Draft, it is not for public review, it is far from approving and submitting to any other organaization.
