The spec already covers presentations - KPresenter already implemented it.
In fact one of the KOffice developers is a member of the OASIS OpenDocument TC. He's aware of \
the possibility of a project management specification and willing to bring it in. We just need \
to come up with a good spec. The main point is that first we should work out what file format \
works and implement it and then bring it to the committee. This way we can make sure that the \
suggested spec is also usable. I'm willing to participate in creating such a spec. If anyone \
wants to join this effort then great, I'm very happy with this :) The other thing I see is that \
the spec already has 700+ pages! So I also want to make sure that the specification does not \
get "overloaded". Still, providing a clean and suitable specification for project management is \
certainly a good thing as it's certainly commonly used - probably not as much as text or \
spreadsheets, but still. And it belongs into the "office" domain. So the first step would be to \
get together and create a clean file format in the first place. If we think the file format is \
fine then we can forward it to the OASIS TC. Best wishes,-- Raphael \
