work on pivot tables for HSSF. (next release's major feature is Images/embedded objects)
Start by looking at the existing HDF codebase its in the scratchpad (src/scratchpad). Understand how the
HSSF record generator works and how it is used by HDF (its XML->Java generation for simple objects).
Then go to wotsit.org and look at the documentation on the word file format.
Create a utillity similar to org.apache.poi.hssf.dev.BiffViewer to flush out the details of the file format.
Create unit tests based on documents with particular properties...
Try to create a runthrough like o.a.p.h.d.HSSF for HDF which reads in the document and writes it back out.
Once this works the rest starts to just happen.
We should move this over to the dev list. Welcome to the team!

Well what about Power Point and all the other MS Office formats? Will there
ever be support for other MS Office formats in the POI project? I would
love to be able to bring these other formats to our AS/400 via POI if at
all possible. Regarding help on the HDF project, where do I start?

No. Not possible yet.
The HDF project is in need of someone to help push this forward.
