Hello, everyone,<br>
<br>
I have had a great summer working on LibreOffice. I was lucky to
have two of the best mentors anyone could hope for: Kohei Yoshida
and Markus Mohrhard. All of my work has been guided by them and
would not have been possible without them. I will be a better
student and software development professional because of my work on
LibreOffice this summer. I hope that LibreOffice is a little better
because of my work.<br>
<br>
We were able to make some great progress on the Calc's import
performance. See my blog for an idea of some our achievements:

There is still work to be done improving the import performance of
styles, pivot tables, and more. Which brings me to my next point...<br>
<br>
I have really enjoyed working on LibreOffice with my mentors and the
LibreOffice community. Even though GSOC is now over and I have
resumed taking classes, I'd like to continue to work on LibreOffice
when I can. So I will see you all around!<br>
<br>
Once again, thank you so much for allowing me to work with you on
LibreOffice as a part of this year's GSOC, and thank you all for
your continued hard work on all aspects of LibreOffice.<br>
<br>
<br>
Respectfully,<br>
Daniel Bankston<br>
