I was actually just getting ready to reply with this -- you have to
stop Apache, then restart it. SPOPS doesn't play well with a -HUP
restart. I was going to say it's in the FAQ, but it's not. (It will be
in a second tho...)

It's in base_theme/template/base_main.tmpl -- but you can change
this by editing the theme and setting the 'main_template'
property. This should be in a 'package::name' format, unless you put
the template in the $WEBSITE/template directory, in which case you can
just use 'name'.

I plan to make this location for the main template (and the 'simple'
template) the default in the future -- it's more intuitive.

Thanks! I look forward to seeing them :-)

BTW, if anyone releases OI packages I'd be happy to put them on the SF
amd openinteract.org download areas. When we get some more packages we
can create something like at
