Let's forward this to the OpenOffice dev list too (in CC) and see if it
is a yes! Volunteers? Templates to be refreshed are here:
http://templates.openoffice.org/en/search?search_api_views_fulltext=apachecon&sort_by=created&sort_order=ASC
ApacheCon EU is in Budapest, Hungary, in case someone doesn't know (old
templates often used the country colors, but this is not a must).

Nick is going to get it clarified (some graphics is from the conference
producers). But this will happen next week at ApacheCon, not earlier.

Really nice, indeed, many thanks to the author..
I've not seen the licence in the properties of this document.
Is it possible to know how this document can be reused ?

I would recommend using vectors like SVG or indexed PNG instead. If
you want to keep it ODF-like, maybe do the design on ODG.

AFAIK there are issues with zipping an ODF file. I remember this was
reported on some ODF blog since the way WinZip ad other programs zip
by default is not 'standard' with ODF editors. Might need to google it
again, but it just jump into mind.

The command line way is simple/direct:
1) Unzip the ODP file to disk
2) Look for any large image files
3) Load the large image files into an editor and reduce
resolution/color depth, increase compression, whatever you need to do
to make it smaller.
4) Save image file back to same name/same directory.
5) Zip up the directory, renaming it to and *.odp extension if needed.
ODF files are just ZIP archives containing XML + binary resources like
images. So they are very hackable from the command line, once you
unzip them.

Nice! Is there a pointer to an easy and complete description of how to
swap out the 18MB masters/background for Nick's improved version? I'm
still lost when it comes to bulk formatting changes in Impress.

Just received an e-mail pointing to the ApacheCon EU template at
<http://events.linuxfoundation.org/events/apachecon-europe/program/speaker-guide.>, which is a
breathtaking 18 (eighteen) MB file! My AOO crashes constantly on that presentation "template" on my
old Windows XP machine due to the size.
Obviously, someone who has no clues what s/he does used incredible sizes for some of the
(background) pictures creating such an abmysal presntation.
This is what one could do to resolve the issue:
* unzip "ApacheEU_PPT_v2_ac.odp", switch into the "Pictures" subdirectory and load the two huge
png-files that stand-out in that directory and resize them e.g. to 1024x768 pixel (fine result,
1/10th of the size, size could be reduced even further).
* zip all the files and subdirectory to a new "ApacheEU_PPT_v2_ac_sane.odp" file.
In my case I could reduce the size to two MB and AOO is happily processing it.
Though the design is extremely dark, so I wonder whether it would be o.k. to use one owns
template/design (carrying the AOO logo and the Apache feather)?

Awesome.
The image on the website is white on a transparent background, which
poses difficulties. :-) Feel free to tweak that if you need to.
