No idea. I do coding for LibreOffice and working in the OASIS TC as 
hobby. I don't look at how long something takes.

I thought, ODF is the basic file format for LibreOffice. So I expect, 
that writing in 'ODF extended' format is included in the tender anyway. 
But it might not be clear to all bidders.

Miklos has already cooperated with the ODF TC when implementing 
"Gutter". Perhaps he can tell how large is the additional effort. For an 
implementer it is much easier to write down the needed info for the 
OASIS TC than for someone else.

If writing in 'ODF extended' format was originally not intended, that 
would need a principle discussion in the board about supporting ODF.

Kind regards,
Regina
