What would also be useful (and maybe less work): example files that I
could load into an old version of LibreOffice, and then a newer version,
to compare side-by-side. It'd be really awesome to have some of them!

one month ago, I try to send you some files in the following email. As I am not 
sure that you receive it, let try again...

Hi Laurent,

    From my part, if this can be useful,

- libmwaw: I « finished » working on the missing PowerPoint’s filters ; so now, LibreOffice must
 be able to « open »  PowerPoint 2 file(Windows) PowerPoint 4 files (Mac and Windows),
 and PowerPoint for Windows 95 files ; i.e. at least, retrieve the main contents on these files,

https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=46520 
<https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=46520> indicates some files(*), which we must
now able to « open » (for instance  http://theory.lcs.mit.edu/~rivest/sdsi20-maryland.ppt 
<http://theory.lcs.mit.edu/~rivest/sdsi20-maryland.ppt>
 or the attachment of https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=87068 
<https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=87068> ), but I do not know
if we can use them. So maybe this one ( an example given with Windows PowerPoint 4) :
 



(*) which shows what is converted and also some remaining problems…

- libwps: I continued to work on Lotus 123 ; LibreOffice must be able to retrieve more 
formatting in
 Lotus 123 SmartSuite 97|98’s files, it must also be able to open all Lotus’ password protected 
files,

Maybe 

from https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=55066 
<https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=55066>
(Note: that the second sheet was completely « ignored » in LibreOffice 5.3 ) 

or one of my test files :


- libstaroffice: 
  + improve a lot the .sdc’s conversion (i.e. we must able to retrieve almost all formatting),
  + .sda file created with StarImpress are now converted as presentation
  + improve also the conversions of .sda and .sdw files but there remains many problems to 
solve.


Oops, it seems that LibreOffice still uses a very old version of libodfgen, 
so the changes will be minimal (i.e. it is probably better to forget this point)

Normally, with a new version of libodfgen :

will be converted in 

,

will be converted in 

.


Note to David: 
- we must probably release a new version of libodfgen soon, i.e. the current
  version was released in December 2015 :-~

Thanks for the information -- that sounds great! I'd like to write a
post on the TDF blog about DLP updates in the last six months, so I can
talk about these changes.

It would be even better to have some screenshots, if possible, showing
these features in action (or showing improvements, like before and after
your changes). Do you have anything like that?

Thanks!

Mike
