 <p>
-  In the New Session dialog, choose the desired template from the combo 
-  selector.
+  In the <a href="@@newopen-session-dialog">New Session dialog</a>, a panel lists the different

-  Note that you can also use an existing session as a template, without 
-  saving it as one. This is available as an option in the New Session dialog. 
-  Doing this will not alter the existing session at all, but will use its track, 
-  bus and plugin configuration just like a template.
+  Both Session templates and Track Templates can be managed through the Manage Templates
+  window, which can perform the following actions:
 </p>
+<ul>
+  <li>Renaming a template</li>
+  <li>Removing one</li>
+  <li>Adding/modifying its description</li>
+  <li>Exporting the templates (e.g. to be used in another Ardour instance)</li>
+  <li>Importing templates (from e.g. another Ardour instance).</li>
+</ul>
