Hi :)
The Marketing list were recently talking about starting up some sort of on-line 
store for 'merchandising' type stuff (t-shirts, coffee mugs, perhaps 
paper-aeroplanes).  I don't know if they have approached the Websites list 
about it yet tho.
Regards from
Tom :)

Yes, there are several possible ways to do it, including Calibre (my
preferred tool). Takes time and effort, even if the conversion tool
works well. Much testing required. This is something I am interested
in, and intend to pursue for my own reasons, some day when I have
time.

I had some major problem with the OOo plugin; I forget what it was,
but it could have been that it failed to install on the Ubuntu system
I was using at the time.
