Hi, Sorry for being unresponsive, I have to forward your request to the dev-mailing list as I have only little time to spend on Apache POI currently and the resulting questions/updates would be handled by the active developers as a whole, so it's the whole group that will be able to decide if we want to participate, usually this is done via a short vote.
@devs: I think it would be useful to have POI be used in this research, so I vote +1 to go ahead. If anybody is interested and wants to be involved more, let Marco know!

Please, let me know if you received it and if you have any timeline to evaluate the proposal so that I can update my co-organizers. Thank you very much for your time.
