Speaking on POI at China Open Source Conference in October

[Dave Fisher]

Hi Team,

I’ve been invited to speak at the COSCON in Shenzhen, China on October 20-21. 
I’ll have two talks. One is about the Incubator, but one was my choice and I 
chose POI due to a few interesting things happening here plus our long history 
as a small project that show some important points about Apache project 
governance.

I’m thinking about slides with these topics, but I’m looking to the community 
to help me with some of the points to add what you know including your 
opinions. Think of this like a group history project. In the end I have one 
hour with plenty of time to be taken in translation.

(1) Apache POI 4.0 Motivations and Features
        Java Jars
        Remove Deprecated methods
        OOXML 1.4

(2) XMLBeans 3.0.1
        Entity Expansions
        Taking over the codebase

(3) OOXML
        Generated from XSD
        Lite generated from listing of classes used in Unit Tests

(4) All of the formats
        Table of formats and when they were introduced

(5) POI 3.5 - OOXML
        Microsoft OpenSource Promise
        Relevance
        Project impact

Regards,
Dave
