Hi :) 1a. Could someone post a "feature request" (using the bug-reporting system) to suggest some sort of converter so that old templates can easily converted to fit the newer system? (or have i misunderstood about newer vs older template systems?)
1b. Even if the newer system can cope with reading the older templates it would still be better to have the templates converted to the newer system for the future, of course. Also it would be really great if it were possible to automatically upgrade all existing templates at; http://templates.libreoffice.org/template-center 2. Btw does anyone happen to know if all OpenOffice templates held on their sites have been copied to the LibreOffice site? Would it be easy to find out? IF it is easy then would it be reasonably easy to hunt&find OpenOffice templates done by 3rd parties and add them to our collection too? 3. Going off on a tangent - does anyone know if it might be possible to convert MS Office templates so that they could be used by both us and by OpenOffice people? If so then it might be a great opportunity for TDF to collaborate with Apache to the benefit of both projects to remove one of the blockers people occasionally cite as a reason they couldn't possibly migrate away from MS.
