[ubuntu-uk] Leaflet - Wiki howto upload please?

2007-06-28 Thread alan c
I have another leaflet which I have just produced, on FOSS only, but cannot see how to upload it (odt file) to the wiki. I have an account and can log in to edit the wiki, and I know how to edit and add text, but do not know how to upload. Comments appreciated. -- alan cocks Kubuntu user#103
