True, but even posting the .odp to the list (even if not stored in 
qemu-web.git) or including a URL to your presentation in the commit 
message (hoping that the URL is long-lasting), might save a few minutes 
for someone down the road trying to use the image as a starting point 
for a slightly different graphic.  (Or maybe I'm just spoiled by the GPL 
guaranteeing access to preferred-editing forms, whether for executables 
or for graphics - even if the blog isn't really under GPL)
