So if I have understood you correctly I should use the model files in

Xerte svn\templates\pageTemplates\models

and ignore any work done in the XOT svn?

PS what is happening with the Interactive Diagram page? It appears to be a
work in progress, with code in the rlm file to support a multiple choice
question, but nothing in the xwd to provide data for this?
