Hi,
Does anyone have any information on the enhancements planned to the Xforms
support within OpenOffice?
From what I have been able to gather, elements such as xforms:repeat are not
supported as OpenOffice supports the Xforms 1.0 spec and xforms:repeat was
introduced in version 1.1 of the spec. (

)
On the roadmap it is mentioned that Xforms enhancements are planned for
somewhere in the 3.x release but it isn't mentioned what the enhancements
are and the release is currently unspecified.

It is suggested in other forum posts that no developers are working on
Xforms which is unfortunate because although the current Xforms support is
really really promising without a couple of things like the xforms:repeat
support it is really hard to use it for a real-world production form. (

Any info that anyone had on this would be great!
Apologies for the duplicate post from a forum, but I was advised this was a
more appropriate place for the question (
