Modularise ODF 1.2 documentation

The modularization of the Open Document Format is one of the most important upcoming tasks for the OASIS ODF TC. Unfortunately it is not an easy step, as the model of the ODF 1.2 part 1 is listing about 600 XML elements about 1300 XML attributes. The modularization of these elements into logical pieces (like section, image, paragraph, table, etc.) is needed. To ease the TC's work and avoid errors such huge tasks are best being solved by tools, automating all the parts that can be automated.

The idea is to provide a generated ODF documentation in HTML that lists alphabetically all attributes and elements of ODF. In addition this will allow to extract values for attributes and an easy to read backus naur form for all 'children elements'.
