You could problably make a case for a few very specific templates.. IF upstream oo.org also includes them. But you certaintly can't argue that all possible extra oo.org templates need to be in Core. In fact.. i regard templates as being similar to something like a theme or a skin or a background. The vast majority of these things should not be in Core... the vast majority shouldn't even be in system packages at all and probably should be installed into a user's home directory as user data instead of system data. The thought of downloading all possible templates in one package disturbs me as much as the thought of having seperate packages for each template makes me ill. A dialog box on how to get templates is something that you should talk to upstream oo.org about implementing. -jef"it will be fun when someone writes a macro script to generate randomized impress templates and submits them every hour to ooextras"spaleta
