In the EA, Patch 1, I am unable to set the default template. There seems to be two issues.
1. After saving the template, the organize templates dialogue is missing the template I saved.
2. The option to set as default is missing.
The template path is correct in my preferences, and if I go to create a new document from template, then I see my new template and can create a document with it.

I will take a look at this and post back here when I have some more information. I am comparing the behavior to OpenOffice.org 3.0.1 which NeoOffice 3.0 and NeoOffice 3.0.1 Early Access is based on.
Aha! It's the double-click in the organizer that does the trick!
What is misleading is that with the two panes, one expects to see the templates on the right when you "select" (single click) the folder on the left.
When you double-click the template folder, the folder opens in the same pane, and you can see your files and the full range of options with a right-click.
Perhaps the wiki needs to be more specific? Include a few screen shots?
"Open the "My Templates" folder in the left part of the window and select the template you want"
If that is the intended behavior, then it's a documentation thing, yes? Though I would submit that the behavior is counter-intuitive.
