Sudhakar, Cool. I need a couple of things out of the way, then I will add this into the CVS.
1. Did you ever have access to Microsoft File format documentation under an NDA ? 2. Was the work you sent to the list done for your employer? In response to your questions, 1. standadrs - well, to create the high quality software, what else? 2. cvs etc :http://www.apache.org/dev/contributors.html 3&4. POI has a large amount of testcases, and we are quite wary of allowing any code into CVS without testcases. We write our testcases in Junit, and expect all functionality OR bugfixes to be accompanied by testcases. Of course, nothing is perfect, so there is always scope to improve. 5. Be cool. Write good software :) HTH - Avik On Mon, 2004-08-02 at 23:27, Koundinya (Sudhakar Chavali) wrote: > Avik, > > I am always ready to work on MS Office tools. > > What ever the contributions I can send I can do that through the mails only. > But as I am new to this open source developer's community I just wanted to know few > things > regarding the source codes. > > > 1.
