That'd be extremely useful to me Ross. I'm running a small (sub) site
which uses MS Word docs as source. At present - having not worked out
the command line Office conversions, and with Ooo's diminishing
support for the old swx format, I'm stuck with manually converting the
docs into swx.

I've sent the code offlist. I've not used it for some time, so it may need a little tweaking. We should discuss it here until it finds a home.

Would a way around the license issues be to present it
as a 'cookbook' - not include the proprietory code?

We could certain put it into the whiteboard with instructions on how to install it. The code is all jar files from OOo and since OOo need to be on the machine in order for the plugin to work there is no reason why we couldn't have the Ant build script bring them into the right location.

I never thought of that, funny how a simple question leads to a simple solution. Problem is, I'm not able to find the time for it right now.

Once you have tried it out and got it working and perhaps added a little documetation (yes I'll answer questions). We can stip the OOo jars and add it to whiteboard.
