Krzysztof,

You won't be able to open templates in OOo once I fix this bug... at
least the way you want me to fix it. The mime-type in shared-mime-info
probably needs to be changed to something like application/x-msword-
template since it is non-standard. Then I can add that to the ooo-
writer.desktop file so that it can open templates using the new legal
mimetype name.

However until that time I suppose I will delete the .dot support from
openoffice.org packaging.

       Target: None => jaunty-alpha-4

** Summary changed:

- Incorrect description for Word document mime type
+ non legal IANA mimetype name for Word document mime type

** Summary changed:

- non legal IANA mimetype name for Word document mime type
+ non legal IANA mimetype name for Word document template mime type

** Description changed:

  Binary package hint: openoffice.org
  
  /usr/share/mime/packages/openoffice.org-common.xml (line 63) which is 
installed with OO.o defines the mimetype "application/msword" with the 
description "Word document template". This causes all Word documents (both 
*.doc and *.dot) to be described as "Word document template in Nautilus.
   <mime-type type="application/msword">
      <comment>Word document template</comment>
      <glob pattern="*.dot"/>
   </mime-type>
  
  The solution is to remove this part of the file altogether.
+ 
+ shared-mime-info defined its own application/msword-template mimetype
+ instead of using application/x-msword-template for unknown reason as its
+ not a IANA mimetype.
