We need to share some files on our public chapter-wiki. Can you enable upload of ODF/ODP/ODT/ODS on no.wikimedia?
Comment 1 Rob Halsell 2010-09-10 17:08:48 UTC
It appears that this is only enabled on private wikis.  No public wikis on the project have this ability.

It seems to be broken down only by if it is public or private.  I imagine its due to exploits possible by uploading those file types.

I will email our tech list and ensure that is why it is this way.
Comment 2 Rob Halsell 2010-09-13 13:01:40 UTC
In reviewing this with some of the tech staff, it seems that indeed, open office file formats are not allowed on public projects.  Upload of a maliciously crafted OpenOffice document leads to CSRF. Any public wiki with OpenOffice uploads enabled is vulnerable.

That pretty much means we do not enable them on public wikis.  Right now your wiki is both public, open registration, and anyone can edit.  So we cannot enable these file types on the project.
