The Open Document Format for Office Applications (ODF), also known as OpenDocument, is an XML-based file format for spreadsheets, charts, presentations and word processing documents. It was developed with the aim of providing a universal document format that could be used with any office software suite.[citation needed]
The standard was developed by a technical committee in the Organization for the Advancement of Structured Information Standards (OASIS) consortium.[2] The specifications were originally developed by Sun Microsystems as an XML format for OpenOffice.org office suite.
In addition to being an OASIS standard, version 1.1 is published as an ISO/IEC international standard, ISO/IEC 26300:2006/Amd 1:2012 - Open Document Format for Office Applications (OpenDocument) v1.1.[3][4]
Contents |
The most common filename extensions used for OpenDocument documents are:[5][6]
for word processing (text) documents.ods
for spreadsheets.odp
for presentations.odb
for databases.odg
for graphics.odf
for formulae, mathematical equations
The original OpenDocument format consists of an XML document that has <document>
as its root element. OpenDocument files can also take the format of a ZIP compressed archive containing a number of files and directories; these can contain binary content and benefit from ZIP's lossless compression to reduce file size. OpenDocument benefits from separation of concerns by separating the content, styles, metadata, and application settings into four separate XML files.
There is a comprehensive set of example documents in OpenDocument format available.[7] The whole test suite is available under the Creative Commons Attribution 2.5 license.
The OpenDocument standard was developed by a Technical Committee (TC) under the OASIS industry consortium. The ODF-TC has members from a diverse set of companies and individuals. Active TC members have voting rights. Members associated with Sun and IBM have sometimes had a large voting influence.[8] The standardization process involved the developers of many office suites or related document systems. The first official ODF-TC meeting to discuss the standard was 16 December 2002; OASIS approved OpenDocument as an OASIS Standard on 1 May 2005. OASIS submitted the ODF specification to ISO/IEC Joint Technical Committee 1 (JTC1) on 16 November 2005, under Publicly Available Specification (PAS) rules.
After a six-month review period, on 3 May 2006, OpenDocument unanimously passed its six-month DIS (Draft International Standard) ballot in JTC 1 (ISO/IEC JTC1/SC34), with broad participation,[9] after which the OpenDocument specification was "approved for release as an ISO and IEC International Standard" under the name ISO/IEC 26300:2006.[10]
After responding to all written ballot comments, and a 30-day default ballot, the OpenDocument International standard went to publication in ISO, officially published 30 November 2006.
Further standardization work with OpenDocument includes:
- The OASIS Committee Specification OpenDocument 1.0 (second edition) corresponds to the published ISO/IEC 26300:2006 standard. The content of ISO/IEC 26300 and OASIS OpenDocument v1.0 2nd ed. is identical.[11] It includes the editorial changes made to address JTC1 ballot comments. It is available in ODF, HTML and PDF formats.
- OpenDocument 1.1 includes additional features to address accessibility concerns.[12] It was approved as an OASIS Standard on 2007-02-01 following a call for vote issued on 2007-01-16.[13] The public announcement was made on 2007-02-13.[14] This version was not initially submitted to ISO/IEC, because it is considered to be a minor update to ODF 1.0 only, and OASIS were working already on ODF 1.2 at the time ODF 1.1 was approved.[15] However it was later submitted to ISO/IEC (as of March 2011, it was in "enquiry stage" as Draft Amendment 1 - ISO/IEC 26300:2006/DAM 1) and published in March 2012 as ISO/IEC 26300:2006/Amd 1:2012 - Open Document Format for Office Applications (OpenDocument) v1.1.[3][4]
- OpenDocument 1.2 was approved as an OASIS Committee Specification on 2011-03-17 and as an OASIS Standard on 2011-09-29.[16][17][18] It includes additional accessibility features, RDF-based metadata,[19] a spreadsheet formula specification based on OpenFormula,[19] support for digital signatures and some features suggested by the public. In October 2011, the OASIS ODF Technical Committee expected to "start the process of submitting ODF 1.2 to ISO/IEC JTC 1 soon".[17] In May 2012, the ISO/IEC JTC 1/SC 34/WG 6 members reported that after some delay, the process of preparing ODF 1.2 for submission to JTC 1 for PAS transposition is now in progress.[20]
Application support[edit]
The OpenDocument format is used in free software and in proprietary software. This includes office suites (both stand-alone and web-based) and individual applications such as word-processors, spreadsheets, presentation, and data management applications. Prominent office suites supporting OpenDocument fully or partially include:
- AbiWord[21][22]
- Adobe Buzzword[23]
- Apache OpenOffice (was OpenOffice.org)[19]
- Atlantis Word Processor[24]
- Calligra Suite[25]
- Corel WordPerfect Office X4[26]
- Evince
- Google Drive (was Google Docs)[27]
- Gnumeric[28]
- IBM Lotus Symphony[19][29][30]
- Inkscape exports .odg
- KOffice[31]
- LibreOffice[19]
- Microsoft Office 2007 (from service pack 2 release)[32]
- Microsoft Office 2010
- Microsoft Office 2013
- Microsoft SkyDrive / Office Web Apps[33]
- NeoOffice
- Okular
- Scribus imports .odt and .odg
- SoftMaker Office
- Sun Microsystems StarOffice
- WordPad 6.1 (Windows 7) partial support.
- Zoho Office Suite[19]
Various organizations have announced development of conversion software (including plugins and filters) to support OpenDocument on Microsoft's products.[34][35] As of July 2007[update], there are nine packages of conversion software. Microsoft first released support for the OpenDocument Format in Office 2007 SP2.[36] However, the implementation faced substantial criticism and the ODF Alliance and others claimed that the third party plugins provided better support.[37] Microsoft Office 2010 can open and save OpenDocument Format documents natively, although not all features are supported.[38]
Mac OS X 10.5 offers both a new TextEdit version and Quick Look feature supporting the OpenDocument Text format (albeit with some formatting loss).[clarification needed]
The specification of OpenDocument has undergone an accessibility review, and a few additions were made to version 1.1 of the specification to improve accessibility. Many of the components it is built on, such as Synchronized Multimedia Integration Language and Scalable Vector Graphics, have already gone through the World Wide Web Consortium's Web Accessibility Initiative processes.[citation needed]
Public access to the standard[edit]
Versions of the OpenDocument Format approved by OASIS are available for free download and use.[39] The ITTF has added ISO/IEC 26300 to its "list of freely available standards"; anyone may download and use this standard free-of-charge under the terms of a click-through license.[40]
Additional royalty-free licensing[edit]
Obligated members of the OASIS ODF TC have agreed to make deliverables available to implementors under the OASIS Royalty Free with Limited Terms policy.
Key contributor Sun Microsystems made an irrevocable intellectual property covenant, providing all implementers with the guarantee that Sun will not seek to enforce any of its enforceable U.S. or foreign patents against any implementation of the OpenDocument specification in which development Sun participates to the point of incurring an obligation.[41]
A second contributor to ODF development, IBM — which, for instance, has contributed Lotus spreadsheet documentation[42] — has made their patent rights available through their Interoperability Specifications Pledge in which "IBM irrevocably covenants to you that it will not assert any Necessary Claims against you for your making, using, importing, selling, or offering for sale Covered Implementations."[43]
The Software Freedom Law Center has examined whether there are any legal barriers to the use of the OpenDocument Format (ODF) in free and open source software arising from the standardization process. In their opinion ODF is free of legal encumbrances that would prevent its use in free and open source software, as distributed under licenses authored by Apache and the FSF.
Support for OpenDocument[edit]
Several governments, companies, organizations and software products support the OpenDocument format. For example:
- Information technology companies like Apple Inc., Adobe Systems, Google, IBM, Intel, Microsoft, Nokia, Novell, Red Hat, Oracle as well as other companies who may or may not be working inside the OASIS OpenDocument Adoption Technical Committee.
- Over 600 companies and organizations promote OpenDocument format through The OpenDocument Format Alliance.[44]
- NATO with its 26 members uses ODF as a mandatory standard for all members.[45]
- The TAC (Telematics between Administrations Committee), composed of e-government policy-makers from the 25 European Union Member States, endorsed a set of recommendations for promoting the use of open document formats in the public sector.[46]
- The free office suites Apache OpenOffice, Calligra, KOffice, NeoOffice and LibreOffice all use OpenDocument as their default file format.
- Several organisations, such as the OpenDocument Fellowship and OpenDoc Society were founded to support and promote OpenDocument.
- In December 2007, the Wikimedia Foundation announced that by mid 2008 MediaWiki, which powers Wikipedia and a number of other Internet wiki-based sites, will provide OpenDocument export of wiki content.[47]
On 4 November 2005, IBM and Sun Microsystems convened the "OpenDocument (ODF) Summit" in Armonk, New York, to discuss how to boost OpenDocument adoption. The ODF Summit brought together representatives from several industry groups and technology companies, including Oracle, Google, Adobe, Novell, Red Hat, Computer Associates, Corel, Nokia, Intel, and Linux e-mail company Scalix. (LaMonica, 10 November 2005). The providers committed resources to technically improve OpenDocument through existing standards bodies and to promote its usage in the marketplace, possibly through a stand-alone foundation.[48] Scholars have suggested that the "OpenDocument standard is the wedge that can hold open the door for competition, particularly with regard to the specific concerns of the public sector."[49] Indeed, adoption by the public sector has risen considerably since the promulgation of the OpenDocument format initiated the 2005/2006 time period.[49]
- Different applications using ODF as a standard document format have different methods of providing macro/scripting capabilities. There is no macro language specified in ODF. Users and developers differ on whether inclusion of a standard scripting language would be desirable.[50]
- The ODF specification for tracked changes is limited and does not fully specify all cases, resulting in implementation-specific behaviors.[51] In addition, OpenDocument does not support change tracking in elements like tables or MathML.[52]
- It is not permitted to use generic ODF formatting style elements (like font information) for the MathML elements.[52]
Worldwide adoption[edit]
One objective of open formats like OpenDocument is to guarantee long-term access to data without legal or technical barriers, and some governments have come to view open formats as a public policy issue. Several governments around the world have introduced policies of partial or complete adoption.[49] What this means varies from case to case; in some cases, it means that the ODF standard has a national standard identifier; in some cases, it means that the ODF standard is permitted to be used where national regulation says that non-proprietary formats must be used, and in still other cases, it means that some government body has actually decided that ODF will be used in some specific context. The following is an incomplete list:

FWD 4dr
Starting at $21,750 | Starting at 27 MPG City - 35 MPG Highway
Provided by NADAguides.com
The 2012 MINI Cooper Countryman is a compact four door crossover version of the MINI cooper offered in standard, S, and ALL4 trim levels. The standard FWD Cooper Countryman is powered by a 1.6-liter 4-cylinder engine that produces 121 hp and 114 lb-ft of torque while the Cooper Countryman S comes equipped with a turbocharged 1.6-liter 4-cylinder engine that produces 181 hp and 177 lb-ft of torque. The Cooper S Countryman ALL4 trim has all the same features as the Countryman S with the addition of all-wheel-drive. A 6-speed manual comes standard on both trims but drivers also have the choice of an optional 6-speed automatic. The standard Cooper Countryman gets an EPA estimated 27 mpg city and 35 mpg highway. Features include HD radio, adaptive xenon headlamps, performance suspension, fully electronic throttle, and the MINI center-mounted speedometer. Safety is comprised of dynamic stability control, dynamic traction control, park distance control, anti-lock brake security, and an ultra rigid body. The Cooper Countryman is backed by a 4-year/50,000-mile warranty.
The 2012 MINI Cooper Countryman is a tall (for a MINI), rugged 4-door model that represents the automaker's venture into crossover vehicles. The Countryman is also the first MINI to offer all-wheel drive and the first model from the brand to offer adaptive headlamps. With four doors, the Countryman also offers a little more passenger versatility than the MINI Cooper models, while the brand's reputation assures they are more nimble, eager-feeling alternatives to other larger crossover vehicles. Its interior is also more versatile and spacious, with textured-grain surfaces and trim details, plus cargo solutions including the customizable Center Rail system that allows for four passengers, or a new rear bench seat that allows for five. With the added value, the Countryman has a starting price that isn't much higher than that of the MINI Cooper.
Following its introduction in 2011, the 2012 Countryman sees only minor changes, and they are aimed at making the car more user-friendly. Chief among them is a rear bench seat option, which expands occupancy to five passengers. A new Technology package includes a center armrest, Park Distance Control, a harman/kardon sound system and either MINI Connected or MINI Connected with Navigation. Other packages have been reshuffled as well.
The 2012 MINI Countryman includes three models: MINI Cooper Countryman, Cooper S Countryman and Cooper S Countryman with 'ALL4' all-wheel drive. The Countryman includes a 121-horsepower, 1.6L 4-cylinder engine that can help the MINI reach 60 mph in 9.8 seconds; the Countryman S gets a 181-hp turbocharged version of the 1.6L that's capable of getting to 60 mph in 7.4 seconds. Yet both engines are very fuel efficient: EPA ratings for the base Countryman are 27 mpg city, 35 highway.

If you could put a gun from bo in mw3 what would it be
Like (0)
Death Machine
That or the Crossbow -- both lovely things...
I was about ready to say the FAMAS to troll but I can't ignore the death machine.
If I had to pick one then it would be the M60. I am a beast with that in BO. They made it horrible in MW3.
Definately the most fun to use, not sure about the best.
famas only because it fits in perfectly with the MW3 guns. low recoil and kills fast like most of the guns on this game so it would fit in right fine.
I was going to say none but that makes sense. Well, death machine would be cool also as a killstreak or care package. Now I want to go play some black Ops!

The definition of overpowered.
In black ops, yes it was overpowered. Mainly because of lag and lag comp, though.
In MW3 it would not be overpowered. It would contend for the spot of best gun, but it would be far from OP because of IW's gun balance system. IW= balance relies on powerful guns, Treyarch= balance relies on weakness of guns.
Not one of the bllops guns, i dont really like them
Yeah, but if you put the famas in MW3, it would be one of the most underpowered weapons in the game, as ACR itself its twice what the FAMAS will ever be. The FMG9 akimbos is like pent Famases....
have I ever told you how much I love your inherent ability to exaggerate everything when it comes to MW3? well, I'm telling you now. not because I just realized this fact but because I'm actually starting to get annoyed at it.... *sigh*
I would say the famas beats the ACR 7 times out of 10 because it has a faster fire rate to compensate for the slightly (SLIGHTLY) lower damage.
but I do almost agree with you with the akimbo fmg9's. those things are like dual famas death rays -____-
My lovely PM-63
Famas..... Pair that with my akimbo FMGs. hehehehe
But really, it would be the crossbow or the m16. Something about that m16 just seems better then the one in MW3. Maybe it had something to do with bigger maps.
AK-47, they had the better model xD
I personally like to snipe. So I would have to say the L96A1.
I second this, it's a tad bit more powerful then the 50. Cal Barret, like all bolt actions should be.
The L96A1 was just a perfect sniper rifle I have to say. If you used the CCP it was much more easyer to snipe. It has the damage and range.
I'm actually really good with the Wiimote, I'm really used to it which gives me the advantage But people who are too lazy to learn use CCP But that's not a problem.
The only problem with the L96A1 is that it was in a game where people used mostly second chance.
Haha, yeah those second chance peeps. But when you put them in second chance its your kill, unlike MW3.
Touche, but at least you have to deal with it less often.
My trusty Mac-11 of course
I would make the Skorpian a primary weapon again. I loved using it in BO and in MW3 I can get a good amount of kills with it.
my flame trower attatchment hahahahaha
no i would never put any disgusting weapons from blops to mw3.
hmm well i couldnt honestly say nothing but the L96 sniper rifle or maybe a better verison of the dragonov lolz.
As much as it pains me to admit, I have to agree with KingHS the Blops Draganauv was waaaaaay way way way way waaaaaaaaaaaaay more better. Like a gajillion times better
I'd go with the M16 from Black Ops

Law students begin their professional lives on the day they enter law school. Every aspect of their law school experience, in and out of the classroom, can help develop their professional portfolios. New York Law School holds these as core beliefs.
In the classroom, students learn the values of the
profession and the skills required to exercise those values. Legal
Practice is a fundamental course for all students which integrates the
teaching of legal reasoning and analysis, legal writing and other
lawyering skills, including client interviewing. Clinical courses and
other electives focusing on lawyering skills further reinforce this
Outside the classroom, students get personal
attention to help them think through and refine their professional goals,
and develop a plan for meeting them.
Students receive individual attention early in their studies from the Office of Professional Development, which brings together the Office of Career Services, the Office of Student Life, and the Office of Public Interest and Community Service.
Approximately 300 paid jobs every year go
to New York Law School students participating in the Federal Work-Study
Program, including jobs at government offices (including
district attorney and public defender's offices), legal aid and
public interest organizations and local area law firms.
Opportunities to work, study and learn exist on campus through faculty
research assistant positions, research and other with the Law School's
nine academic centers.

Come Away With Me: Look At Me
The Moments
One of the most consistent R&B aggregations of the '70s, the Moments enjoyed a string of major hits throughout the decade. The Hackensack, NJ, trio introduced themselves and the Stang label with "Not on the Outside" in 1968, and topped the R&B charts in 1970 with the gold-plated "Love on a Two-Way Street," produced by Sylvia Robinson (one half of Mickey & Sylvia). Other major soul smashes by the Moments included "If I Didn't Care" and "All I Have" in 1970, "Sexy Mama" in 1973, and another number one R&B item, "Look at Me (I'm in Love)," in 1975. Members Harry Ray, Al Goodman, and William Brown changed their billing to Ray, Goodman & Brown in 1978 and topped the soul lists the next year with the slickly harmonized "Special Lady" on Polydor. The renamed trio remained potent soul hitmakers through the '80s. ~ Bill Dahl, Rovi

Amid national talk of gun control, sales have increased in Maryland, the WBAL-TV 11 News I-Team reported.
There were more than 7,200 gun-purchase applications filed in November, according to Maryland State Police data. It's too early to tell the number for December, the month in which 26 adults and children were killed at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn.
"We don't have hard numbers yet for December. We are projecting, we're looking at over 8,200 purchase applications to be processed," said Maryland State Police Sgt. Marc Black.
In 2011, more than 46,000 purchase applications were processed. By the end of 2012, state police project at least 62,000 will be handled. Troopers would not speculate on why, but some of the reasons are apparent: The holiday season, high-profile crimes and some lawmakers preparing measures to change gun laws.
"I think when people see school children slaughtered, they get the message (that) something has to change. That's our hope," Montgomery County Sen. Brian Frosh, D-District 16, said on Dec. 19.
According to FBI crime statistics, Maryland had 398 murders last year -- 272 of which were committed with firearms. Of those firearms numbers, 262 happened by way of handguns, two by rifles, five by shotguns and three by unknown firearms.
The weapon that police said Adam Lanza used in the Newtown killings was legally owned and registered to his mother, Nancy. She, too, was a victim of her 20-year-old son's murderous rampage -- he shot her four times in the head, police said.
Following the tragedy, calls for increased school safety arose, including from the National Rifle Association, which announced its security stance on Dec. 21.
"I call on Congress today to act immediately to appropriate whatever is necessary to put armed police officers in every single school," said Wayne LaPierre, executive vice president of the National Rifle Association.
At the Harold (Texas) Independent School District, armed police do not protect the school's 100 students -- armed teachers do. At least one lawmaker in Maryland has vowed to fight against that, proposing a bill that puts limits on concealed-weapons permits.
