Re: [RFR] templates://openoffice.org/{templates}
Ah, Christian got there first while I was trying to find a version
of the sources that had this template. I'm glad I'm not doing this
on dial-up.

Agreed, though if we're splicing it into one sentence it had better
have a semicolon.

Is "store" a technical term? I'm guessing you mean "data storage".
Also, I suspect "eventually" of being a false friend for "possibly".
Would it make sense to rephrase it without the parentheses?
If you experience problems with the component manager or segmentation faults
in either unopkg or OpenOffice.org which involve data storage, please check
these files. If necessary, try cleanly reinstalling the packages and/or
using a clean user profile.
