jsc: ok...

Basically it's like the following:
 - a OOo gallery item consists of three files (sg??.{sdg,sdv,thm}
 - gengal creates them out of a filelist of images (like you would do manually
   in the OOo UI in the gallery with "New Theme.." (which btw probably means new
   topic/subject, but anyway) - though afair with the (minor) difference
   that gengal lnks to the files and does not embed then.
 - Those files currently are put into the OOo install dir. From Debian lennys
   openclipart-openoffice.org package
(http://packages.debian.org/openclipart-openoffice.org):

$ dpkg -L openclipart-openoffice.org
/.
/usr
/usr/lib
/usr/lib/openoffice
/usr/lib/openoffice/share
/usr/lib/openoffice/share/gallery
/usr/lib/openoffice/share/gallery/sg70.sdg
/usr/lib/openoffice/share/gallery/sg70.sdv
/usr/lib/openoffice/share/gallery/sg70.thm
[...]

If we now look at e.g.
http://extensions.services.openoffice.org/project/oxygenoffice-gallery which is
an extension containing clipart/gallery stuff we
see in gallery/ the exact files a "normal" "New Theme..." in OOo (or gengal)
would create. In fact, I know that OOOP actually does use gengal.

So gengal is still needed for external people to create those files, be it that
those files end up in OOos dir or in an oxt. See it as a external tool for
creating extensions or add-ons. What the SDK is: OpenOffice.org "software
development kit". Those .shm/.sgv/.thm files are also software ;-)
