I recognized, that it’s possible to upload Microsoft Office documents (docx, xlsx, pptx), but not Libre Office documents (odt, ods, odp). Is this by intention, or could open document file types be allowed as well? Open Source and stuff. 😉  
Thx for maintaining this installation and offering the community a platform!

Thanks. I consequently removed the office document formats from the allowed list 😉 PDF should be the most secure and sufficent format for any document.
