ODMref1.0
ODMA 1.0 Reference Implementation
ODMref1.0 is a miniature
document-management system for personal use on desktop
computers. It is useful for demonstration, study,
training, troubleshooting, and prototyping of managed-document
applications.
Development will be gradual.
Following stabilization of enough client-side ODMdev kits such
as the Java-ODMA Integration Kit, ODMrun1.0 and ODMref1.0 will
be developed in parallel. An iterative development
process is used to make coordinated progress, with each stage of
ODMrun1.0 and ODMref1.0 employed in the confirmation of the other.
Intermediate convergence points will deliver development library
additions and fixtures that can be used as tools and as
examples. Those materials become the basis for improvement
in subsequent iterations until complete ODMrun1.0 and ODMref1.0
functionality is achieved.

System Requirements
|
- Straightforward Desktop Operation
Manage documents
directly from ODMA-aware productivity applications; preserve and
access your files in their original format with easy import,
export, and packaging for interchange.
- Simple Installation and Maintenance
Software
installation, configuration, backup, and removal preserves
document collections across upgrades, downgrades, and
re-installation.
- Automatic Log and Audit Functions
Activity logs
provide an audit trail and complete details for verifying
office-document operations involving ODMref1.0-managed
documents.

The ODMA 1.0 interface common to all ODMA-aware
desktop software is implemented.
- Full Software Source-Code and Documentation
ODMref1.0 software and documentation illustrate, explain, and
demonstrate the basic model for making document-management systems
ODMA-compliant. The software is freely-available for re-use
and modification under an easy-to-honor open-source license.
