In relation to Rodney Wise's Contribution yesterday regarding templates. I have had a similar, but original idea.

One of the advatanges of Ooo to me, aswell as it's price, is the fact that it is so much smaller than MS, and that's especially important when downloading. If Ooo were to include the templated for Impress in the original download file - similar additions would have to be made for all the product of the same suite. I therefore propose that the best step would be to have a torrent style window. Whereby a list of themes appears in a left box, from a dedicated server list (such as a .torrent file) and then on the right for a thumbnail preview to appear. This kind of approach would lend itself to both keeping the download size small and offering a wider range of templates than Microsoft. In order to limit the number appearing, one would have to keep them Categorised - but having different servers with different templates on would easily fix this problem.

Interested in people's feedback? - It sounds like a simple idea to include.
