XSLX import/export filter funding

[Runar Ingebrigtsen]

Hi everyone,

I am having the pleasure of deploying LibreOffice to 50 employees at a
local business.

Unfortunately, this is hampered by the performance of the xlsx
import/export filters.
Meaning that there are some files, even simple ones, that takes
extremely long time to open.
The same files opens just fine and in seconds in Calligra, for instance.

There are several bugs describing this issue or similar ones:
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=30770
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=56259
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=56394
https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=61721

I have started a sponsoring offer for this, and am looking for participants:
http://www.freedomsponsors.org/core/offer/221

Besides, I am trying to get the local business to join the sponsoring.

I can provide more test cases with real world documents, but not in public.
