But I have heared things like this from other projects (e.g. maven plugins) and I waited and waited and finally a year passed.

For my personal needs it suites well if I can use a nightly build version but for real usage I tend to use an official version. Good luck to all POI activists for the next release... > > Regards, > Dave Fisher Regards Jörg --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Mailing List: http://jakarta.apache.org/site/mail2.html#poi The Apache Jakarta Poi Project: http://jakarta.apache.org/poi/
