Doesn't OOo produce some kind of XLM? Isn't that possible to use - at
least in combination of a *strict* template?

Or simply collect it by mail, and then have somebody to fix up
formatting etc. before release?

It might be a good idea to have some kind of tree structure...

This might be the beginning of something more than just release notes -
finally some real off-line doc for users to look at! (place a big
shortcut on their desktops :P )
