Yes 
sure
it's not a flame. 

it's just sharing of one of those unknown features of Excel and Web

The matter si that Excel serializer can be created in a minute.

You just need:
- change sitemap.xmap file (couple of lines like mime type etc.) (using
existing HTMLSerializer)
- create an xml file
- write a stylesheet to process it


this will be the most cost and load saving solution.

Hi guys, I didn't mean to throw a flame. I just wanting the
information to be known by cocoon-users. As I told it (privately)
to Alex, I think that adding a Cocoon2 serializer for Excel (even
if MIME type + XSL stylesheet can work) is important to convince
managers and decision-makers.

Cheers, yann.
