DR 10-0048 (OPC Annex C) proposed changes

[Chris Rae]

One piece of information I think is lost in my current draft is the records for which “supported” is “no” but “pass-through on editing” is set to “yes” (this includes the one DR 10-0048 was originally directed at). I’m wondering whether we could introduce a setting of “Ignored”, meaning that the record is permitted to exist in an OPC file but an OPC consumer must not use its content. It would then be down to implementations to determine whether to round-trip the record or not.

In the Table Key at the top of C.3 the term “Optional” is defined, but is not used in any of the tables. I think this relates to Chris’ comment as to whether ‘Yes’ always means ‘may’ or perhaps sometimes means ‘must’.

Attached is a first draft of my proposed rewording of OPC's Annex C. I've tried to cut it down so that the annex refers only to the file format and not to implementations, and as a result have removed quite a lot of normative text that I believe was relevant only to the MS Office implementation. More work is definitely needed (I've added questions as comments in several places) but hopefully we can use this as a draft to continue work from.
