With respect the following statement:

> license (preferable copy left)

Does the use of the word "support" mean "technical support?"   Or does 
it mean "host," as in "we host only extensions / templates under a  FOSS 
license"?  Or "encourage"?

The reason I ask is that I understand this extension page will be the 
paramount reference point for all templates & extensions related to the 
LibreOffice ecosystem.  I would hope that anyone who clicks on this page 
would find information on all things related to LibO extensions and 
templates, regardless of the chosen license.

thanks in advance,
