Hi X,
What do you prefer X be: Hoan Vu Quoc or Vu Quoc Hoan or something else?

Use the Google Groups web interface at
http://groups.google.com.au/group/python-excel?hl=en and search for
"note xlwt" ... the first hit is a short thread that will answer your
question.

Hi Hoan,

What I said was: "I'd say a patch would be welcome (for xlwt), but it
would be a rather big fat patch ... you need to write [a whole lot of
stuff]" ... this is an elaboration with reasons of the standard
push-back "Patches are welcome"; in other words: "I'm not going to write
a patch, but if you write a [reasonable] patch, it will be welcomed."

It certainly wasn't intended as a prediction that a patch would be
written by some unspecified person(s) at some time in the future.

Short story: No patch exists, and no patch is planned.

Cheers,

John
