Subject: Re: [ANN] Library for writing ODF files

By the way,

there is a read-only library for Spreadsheets called ROO, which is more
advanced then RubyODF. I know that the author is interested in writing
capabilities but does not have the time to implement it alone.

Maybe you should drop him a line.
