The original issue is at
https://github.com/kjambunathan/org-mode-ox-odt/issues/25

"org-export-table-cell-alignment uses org-export-data to infer cookies
of some columns. I think, it should use other mechanisms like
org-element-interpret-data (may be)."

The odt exporter is really useful, it replaces latex in most cases for
me. How can I help in getting it into the main org repo?

IIRC, quite some time ago now, there were issues with copyright
etc. with this particular branch of the ODT exporter.  There is an ODT
exporter in the standard version of org.

The standard version of org has a lot of limitations. Is it possible that the
author of ox-odt gives his repos as a gift to me, and let me deal with the
copyright stuff? I am living in China, a quasi-communist country, :<.

In case you won't check the issue because of it not copy right. The complete bug
report is:

"Lisp nesting exceeds ‘max-lisp-eval-depth’" exceeded, when using
cookies with List Tables.
org-export-table-cell-alignment uses org-export-data to infer cookies of some
columns. I think, it should use other mechanisms like org-element-interpret-data
(may be).

Please report them, and, if possible, help fixing them.

Does this issue happen with "ox-odt.el" bundled with Org? If so, could
you provide an ECM?

I disagree. For example

  | @@html:<b>text</b> 1.2 |

doesn't express a number with `org-element-interpret-data', although it
is a number when exporting, i.e., to LaTeX.

There is only one way to know if the cell is going to be a number during
export: effectively exporting it.

The issue happen with list-table in the unofficial ox-odt, list-table enables
list in tables, it's very cool.

Most problem I reported are fixed in this repo:
https://github.com/kjambunathan/org-mode-ox-odt

And I think there is no one more capable and willing to fix issues related to
ox-odt than the original author.

It will benifit more people if we can include it in the official org-mode.

Can anyone tell me whether if my approach will work:
The author of ox-odt gives me his code as a gift, and it becomes mine, the I can
do everything with it, right?

No. You can use it for your own personal purposes in accordance with
the terms of its license. That's all.

Please read the context section in the article that I pointed out to you earlier.

AFAIK, list-tables are supported in bundled "ox-odt.el" too. So, again,
could you provide an ECM?

You may well be right for the first part of the sentence, but I can tell
I'm at least as willing as anyone to fix the issues related to ox-odt.

Alas, this is not possible, and it doesn't depend on us.
