I posted about doing this on shapado.com a few months ago, take a look:
http://libreoffice.shapado.com/

The mailing list archives will also tell you more.

I think it would be unfortunate to use a non-free SaaS to do this,
specially when Shapado can do more.

I haven't been able to put much more time on this lately, but surely
making it an official resource would help it gain traction.

Cheers,

Fabian
