Bug#281351: Update/Questions on swxtotext



I am not sure why mako claims I do not want to upload this.
I just do not have time to prepare the packaging in the near
future, nor the need. I am happy to review and sponsor uploads
if wanted. I think not packaging it myself is also a good
habit which helps avoid DDs from flooding debian with their
own unrequested software.

As you might expect, I disagree that a perl script is as robust
and flexible as the simple shell script approach, although
it does have other features. I don't need those features yet,
as few people email OO writer files around (mostly uncorrected
former MS Word file emailers who changed to OpenOffice) and
I've only ever once been sent an unsolicited OO spreadsheet.
