Hi Andrea,

Well, that is how the OO.o team did it, reading the license out of the
properties of the template - but I'm not so sure that is the right way
to do it.

I use the templates from time to time and have been burned twice by that
little feature - cause if you forget to remove it then the document you
create retains the original license, but in the case of work for hire it
can not and the final document does not relate any longer to the
templates license as far as I an concerned - although other may
disagree. I would really like to hear your and other's thoughts on that
actually.

As for the FSF/ R.S. opinions - not everyone agrees with them as I am
sure you are aware.

Thanks

Drew
