I don't think there's any way to delete posts to these public mailing
lists, which are archived in many other locations, but this post will
probably stop the flow of new answers as soon as the list members see
it. I hope somebody was able to help you with your problem.

Sorry, this was poszted to the list -- but it has nothing personal in
it. Your e-mail address was made public by your first post,
unfortunately. There's no evidence that this causes any harm (spam,
etc.), though.

You'll have to find and delete the lock file for your brochure. It
should have a name like .~lock./yourfilename/.odt# (and the dot shows
it's a hidden file, so you might have to tell your operating system to
show hidden files). Once you've done that, your file should again be
editable, if locking was the only problem. But getting that dialog
implies that something may have happened to the file extension, so you
may need to bring up Writer first and browse to the file to open it.
Ordinarily, a locked file would open, but in Read Only mode.
