I think this module is currently "ownerless". However, I would LOVE for someone to pick it up, finish a few tickets, do some general ui cleanup, and update the docs. I think there is a HUGE need out there for something generic to do imports like this. I'm willing to offer my mentoring skills to anyone that wants to.
https://wiki.openmrs.org/display/docs/Spreadsheet+Import+Module has links to the source code as well.
