As for the extensions, they are ZIP files and you can often (not always, unfortunately) unzip them and find a README.txt file with author names and contact details. As for templates, the policy of templates.services.openoffice.org forces some document properties to be filled in in the file itself before you can upload a template. By inspecting the document properties, you will find some details; the templates I uploaded are complete with contact details, but I'm not sure about the rest. > we should include in our documentation of any of the submissions of > extensions/templates that the author's email is part of the contributing > form. I think it's smarter to actually inspect the file, because this way the basic information is embedded in the template and is carried around every time it is copied. This is one of the nice things that make templates.services.openoffice.org an interesting site (just in terms of underlying technology).
