Thanks. If you e.g. would like to host the online converter
http://jooreports.sourceforge.net/?q=jooconverter/demo
on the fellowship website just let me know.

Good point. Main reason is that those projects were started back in
2004 with OOo 1.x when ODF didn't exist yet, and some features do rely
on OOo specificities at the moment. I'll revise everything with the
distinction in mind.
On a related note, I just checked Writely / Google Docs (which IMO is
going to have a big impact) and their File menu says "Save as
OpenOffice", not "Save as OpenDocument Text". Maybe we should tell them
as well?
Best regards
Mirko
