Any other reasons for turning off HTML?  The listed ones are enough. . .

Who is the web site and/or email hosting service that is causing you to 
pay for "transfer" and bandwidth?

GoDaddy.com, who I use for my multiple domains and web pages, is 
unlimited for both with their initial multi-domain hosting account - 
which is the next level up from one domain per account.

Is there any way I could use my hosting account to help out with 
LibreOffice's bandwidth and transfer needs?  I could be a second source 
for downloading the files from, or some other thing.  I have maybe 100 
gig of free space left on my account at the last time I checked.  I use 
the Krackedpress.com domain for email accounts only at this point, but 
host several others for myself and not-for-profit-organizations.  Since 
LibreOffice falls in the last category, I have no qualms in helping out 
this way.

Pass my offer on to the "powers that be".  I am on a fixed income, so I 
cannot donate cash, but I have not problem donating space on my hosting 
account.  I can host another 20 or 30 domains with ease and could host 
100+/- more web pages worth of files over what I am currently hosting 
for me and my commitments. If you need bandwidth or transfer amounts, I 
have it in spades to spare.
