Dennis,

Thanks!  I now understand.

I will forward this mail (and other relevant ones) to the Japanese
mirror of SC34.

Regards,
Makoto

The draw:sharpness description specifies the inner single-center ellipse and defines the percentage by which the inner radius is less than the outer radius of the regular polygon.  That is, the language is equivalent to that in ODF 1.0/1.1, although it arises in only one place.
