Hi,

I think we shouldn't make it so negativ that we are not using OASIS as 
"native" format yet. Rather we should stress that OASIS OpenDocument 
is available as a "close to complete" (use better wording) 
import/export filter that can and should be tested, as it is going to 
be the native format for the 2.0 release.

This should look like we pay attention to quality!

Because we give the filter time to be tested thoroughly for a full 
release cycle. We should ask the users (in the release notes or 
announcement) to send in reports particularly on the OASIS filter so 
we can make the filter as complete as possible. Still we should tell 
them to use the current format for storing critical data (or 
recommend it, sounds better). This should be the message (IMHO).

So... the OASIS OpenDocument file format support is there, as 
"promised". And I think for most of the parts it's probably rather 
complete, I have done my last presentation in KPresenter in the .odp 
format (which worked better than .kpr)
