Hi Nicklas, I dunno if this is the correct place
but there's one feature I'm needing when creating a xls report

you can see it here: https://community.jboss.org/thread/196968

thanks for your time

> We should mirror the functionality of creating PDF documents from Facelets 
> templates and create a component set that generates excel documents. There 
> are two approaches we can take. One approach is to use POI to build the 
> document structure and then export it. The second approach is to build an XML 
> document that Excel can understand. Technically there is no reason to 
> actually produce a binary Excel document as long as we can feed something 
> that Excel knows how to convert. Regular CSV support would be nice too, but I 
> always find that to be such a cop out.
> Creating this module shouldn't be too technically challenging since most of 
> the infrastructure has been set up already when creating the PDF components. 
> In fact, i would start by working in that module and then split it out into 
> another JAR.
