Upload SP2007 list templates to SP2010

Solution:
  1. Rename the original .STP to .CAB
  2. Extract its manifest.xml and other contents (if any) to a local folder (lets call it [folder])
  3. Search for the ProductVersion element. This should have a value of 3
  4. Change its value to 4
  5. Repackage the manifest.xml into a .CAB. I've done this by using makecab.exe in the C:\Windows\System32 folder
    Syntax
    : makecab.exe [folder]\manifest.xml [folder]\{template-name}.cab
  6. Change the generated cabinet's extension from .CAB back to .STP and upload it into the _catalogs/lt
