Question about reference to OpenDocument

Hi all,

I've noticed that in the specification we have a note about OpenDocument.
(Just *above* this link: http://www.w3.org/International/its/itstagset/itstagset.html#ruby-markup)

It says:

"The structure of ruby defined in section 5.4 of [OpenDocument] is compliant with ruby defined in this specification."

Was there a reason to have this in the specification? Why talking about OpenDocument? Not XHTML?, not other formats? why saying this
for Ruby and not for Directionality, for for Translate and DITA?

Just wondering...
