My advice: Don't worry about this yet. We are changing templates, along with the change in copyright license. Linda, Jean, Janet and I have been talking about, perhaps, not using a real template (.stw file) anymore. You see, the only people here who really know how to use a template well are Jean and Janet. If we stop using a .stw files, the instructions would be much easier: 1) Open the file. 2) Start writing. :-) So, let's wait for a final decision before making you do work. :-) > A couple of questions regarding the document itself: > > 1) The placeholders in the template: Do I replace them with regular > text or do I fill in values in fields somewhere Replace placeholders with regular text. > (now I am showing my lack of knowledge of fields :-) )?

When we move to the new license, there won't be an "initial writer" section anymore. Just a list of authors, and you add your name to it. I'm pretty excited about the changes we're making. I think that the new "template" and license are going to be much easier to use and learn than the ones we have today.
