Hi,

In my opinion, there is only one prominent place to add a link to *all* the existing places that offer templates and samples and macros and more - that is the OOo user interface itself. For example, the "Templates and Documents" dialog must show a link to a central Web page, which may be a Wiki page, so that everyone can easily add their own place to download templates there.

Remember that, because of internal security policy, all users can't connect to the Internet from their PC at work. Therefore a visible link on the web pages is a requirement. The user could then go to the internet-enabled PC and download the files she'd install on her own workstation.

you mean that some firewalls do not allow OOo to connect to the Internet and to download some files from there? OOo should be allowed to connect to the Internet, because it now has the new "Check for updates" feature, soon it will have the same feature for installed and new to be installed extensions, and more connectivity may come in the future. On the other hand, if a sys admin doesn't want to give Internet access to OOo, all that is lost is the ability to find some additional info and files in a comfortable way.
