Right now, we're basically done with the low level Ole Compound Document Format, we're going to clean that up and wrap a high level api around it. Then we'll split into two tasks basically: Excel stuff and Cocoon Stuff (serializer and/or generator). Today we're specing out the interfaces. Tomarrow we're doing performance enhancements on the Ole CDF stuff and figuring out what to name it to avoid using Ole but making it clear. > Did I get you right in your first mail.

The idea for this grew out of several projects I've worked on that had to buy Formula1 (www.f1j.com) which is $10,000 and has a very convoluted api (actually it has three or four). Moreover, it doesn't have very good XML capability. Lastly Donald's ESQL stuff seems ripe for quick reporting. >Mariano --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, email: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
