Description Matthias Basler 2003-07-03 16:09:36 UTC

While a citation entry without brackets is correctly displayed in OOo1.1, 
additional brackets "[ ]" are displayed around the citation entry if the 
document is loaded into OOo1.0.x since these version does not yet support 
citation entries without any brackets.
This means a lack of downward compatibility and lead to problems if documents 
that are created with OOO1.1 are to be read with OOo1.0.x.

We need to investigate if this is a way around thsi. I may be 
unavoidable.

Comment 3 Martin Hollmichel 2004-06-04 10:51:06 UTC

change componont for review.

Comment 4 jack.warchold 2004-06-08 16:45:46 UTC

i also think this will be not avoidable and downward compatibility could not allways 
be granted, because of all the new features and bugfixes in the later versions.
i set this to invalid
