Oh, sorry, there seems to be a misunderstanding. The filter itself consists of 
two parts, libwv2 (external) and the KOffice "frontend" to libwv2. Then there 
are potential bugs in KWord, which explains your problems loading some .odt 
files.

The test harness in libwv2 is completely independent from KOffice. IMHO the 
first step is to ensure that libwv2 is able to handle everything you throw at 
it, e.g. by using handlertest. Using koconverter you can subsequently test the 
KOffice "section" of the filter, and finally the loading in KWord. 

Hope that helps,
Werner
