As far as I can see there are the next few options: 1) Create a standard subsets of Templates (<5) including the common Openoffice files and some other.
2) Let the programs copy their templates to the Templates directory 3) Utility to manage templates 4) Utility to mediate in template creation on installing programs (An hybrid between 2&3) 5) Standard subset of templates plus utility to mediate (as in 1&4) 6) Do nothing I certainly think that 1 would be good enough. The Ubuntu desktop team would choose a sane number of default templates and that's it. Easy, quick, and fitting for a majority of users. Probably something in the line of 5 would be better, but a lot more difficult to implement. In any case, a decision should me made at some point so, we could try #1, see how it goes, and if some terrible thing happens, revert to the previous state or try something else... -- "Create Document" Templates difficult to use https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/372132 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to nautilus in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
