Hi, I'm currently investigating a bug with the Excel 2003 import filter (https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=35543). Looking closer at the filter and how much work needed to be done to improve it, and considering the fact that Office 2003 ML has been superseeded by OOXML, fixing that bug feels like flogging a dead horse.
I'd rather suggest to drop Office 2003 support in LibO altogether and instead focus on improving OOXML and HTML import/export. For anybody with a large library of Office 2003 XML documents not wanting to upgrade to MS Office 2007/2010, Microsoft offers a compatibility pack that allows to open and save OOXML from MS Office 2003. What do you think?
