[VisCom] OSGeo Presentation Template - Draft - Review and Comment by Tues 6/6

OK, color me confused -- I've never used Open Office before, but am
willing to give it a try...

I converted my .ppt file to be an .odp file, and then tried to pull in
the template Peter sent out.  But, Peter's attached file was an .odg,
which as near as I can tell is a "Draw" file, not an "Impress Template"
-- I think I need an .otp file, but there doesn't seem to be an .odg ->
.otp conversion path available.

What am I doing wrong?
