I am pleased to announce that the first public version of ODFDOM is now available for download.

ODFDOM is the new opensource (LGPLv3), multi-layered, lightweight, OpenDocument centric API with a Java 5 reference implementation.

For a quick review we offer you an online JavaDoc documentation and the wiki. For deeper analysis we have uploaded several packages:

The zipped JavaDoc API
The JAR of the reference Java 5 implementation
The zipped NetBeans package containing the sources of ODFDOM v0.6.

The version number 0.6 was chosen as we believe that although there is still some work towards a full version, already more than half of the way towards it was managed.

Even with its 0.6 version, ODFDOM is more than a successful prototype, which tests new concepts like the typed DOM code generation from the RelaxNG schema of OpenDocument 1.1. Moreover it is the living successor of AODL and Odf4j, co-evolved from their creators and already matured by countless development cycles within more than a year development within Sun.

Therefore there is nothing left for me to say, as that I hope you will join us in evolving the API to a full version!

Please enjoy the API...
Svante
