Hi everyone,

I'm not a coder, so I would need help here. However, I did a search for 
'ott' and the only relevant file in sfx2 seems to be this: 
http://opengrok.libreoffice.org/xref/core/sfx2/source/doc/docvor.cxx, 
is that correct?

I created some templates which you can find on that Wiki page: 
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Design/Call_for_Templates#Submissions. 
I uploaded some of them to templates.libreoffice.org/template-center 
and we're looking for more people willing to design some more. I tried 
to contact several contributors who uploaded nice templates to the 
template center, but got no answer so far.
The design team will then decide/vote which ones meet our expectations.
Regarding the number of templates: I didn't think about that yet, but 
10 for each application seems reasonable. Maybe more later on.

Kind regards

Alex
