I think trying to get an open office template established and bypassing XMLMind
is a worthy goal. Sasha was looking into that and this discussion makes me think
we should try and get that working.

The only reason I resist that is for people in Africa or elsewhere who might not
have regular web access. But Tyler, maybe we should have several ways of doing
this if someone can help us do the above...
