What library will you use to generate the Excel output? POI? Should we really make this a dependency for Tomahawk? I think it would be better to put it in a different subproject. Some kind of ExportRenderKit, which could also contain PDF renderers using iText, for example. Jurgen Op wo,

Yes I agree with you Jurgen. But It seems we don't know how far this exporting business will go. My plan is to work at sandbox for now, when the time comes to do the promotion, I guess we'll have a better understanding of the situation. CagatayOn 8/24/06, Jurgen Lust [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I

Hi! Yeah, right. I wouldn't mind a separate module either - it's not too big an overhead. Not a big overhead? Yet another directory in our current thingy, yet another entry in our pom.xml and maybe another couple of poms for the module itself. Not to speak about the release process and testing
