Cyriaque Dupoirieux commented on FOR-311:
-----------------------------------------

This plugin should be superseded by the odt plugin.
Are we sure that we want to maintain this version which manage a format abandonned by OOo ?

> There appears to be a bug or feature in OpenOffice which affects how haedings are stored as XML. It appears that if a virgin document is opened then all headings are stored in <text:h> tags, but if an existing document is opened that lacks a particular haeding style, then if you create that heading style it is stored in <text:p> tags.
> This causes Forrest to mis-interpret headings, as the Forrest OOo XSL file identifies OOo headings by looking for the <text:h> tags.

I'm happy to see this plugin retired.
