- Yes, exactly, parts written with the ODFLibrary 1.0 will work fine with
- the ODFLibrary 1.1 but parts written with the ODFLibrary 1.1 won't work
- with the ODFLibrary 1.0. If there is a new API in 1.1 that your part uses
- there is no way it can work with 1.0 where the API is missing. SOM is not
- magic it cannot write missing code.
