        As a correction, all of the source code for Collabora Online is open,
and published up-stream as FLOSS =)

        The idea is in itself not terribly silly to want to do calculation on
the client; however - as Markus says the code is not very susceptible to
this being very tightly coupled with our storage representation etc.

        The other thing is that - if there is a concern wrt. the server CPU
usage from re-calulation, there are lots and lots of things that can be
done to improve performance, parallelism, and to optimize Calc to reduce
that server-load (if that's what worries you). Server-side calculation
also appears to be what MS Office online uses.

        HTH,

                Michael.
