Hi Dave,

Yes, a certificate would be the first step.

BTW:
I noticed that the link to "Templates" on
http://extensions.openoffice.org points to
http://templates.services.openoffice.org instead of
http://templates.openoffice.org.

I am not sure if these URL with .services should still be used...

Kind regards, Matthias
