Hello, Thanks for your kind response.
I think those links must be cleaned up immediately. Those huge number of "dofollow" links from templates.openoffice.org do violate Google Webmaster Lines. I know templates.openoffice.org is a good site for users to share and/or download templates for free, but there are too many spam links and useless templates. This is really bad for user experience and your site. I think you must take action to clean up and you can also add "ref=nofollow" attribute to all the external links within the post. Please delete the links pointing to formsbirds as soon as possible under the account susie...@yandex.com. We feel worried and Google has warned our site for those spam links from openoffice.

For reference, the Templates site is managed through the https://sourceforge.net/projects/aoo-templates/ project on SourceForge. Web hosting documentation here: https://sourceforge.net/p/forge/documentation/Project%20Web%20Services/ Gav and Andrea Pescetti ("aooadmin") have access to the project, and we can add more. Similarly the extensions site is run through the "aoo-extensions" project with same admins plus Roberto too. I don't see an OOOUSERS wiki page documenting this, perhaps I can create one soon. I do see quite a bit of spam and blank/forbidden items on the templates site, so it does need some cleanup for sure. We do have some Drupal experience inhouse at SourceForge, I can talk with our team and see how soon we can get in there and address this formsbirds.com request, as well as maybe a bit more cleanup. Andrea, if you're reading this, do you have any pointers regarding the administration of the extensions/templates? I think you've done most of the work on them in the past. Our in-house guys can probably help out but aren't familiar with the specifics of these sites at all. I've reached out to Andrea already, but he is not around until Thursday or so. I think it's a good idea to let your guys get familiar with both AOOE/AOOT, and don't forget to invite them to join us over here, they'd be welcome!
