Perhaps you stopped reading too soon. There are a few definite hints -- but only hints -- further down: [...] >> If you find any problems, please ask about them on the >> python-ex...@googlegroups.com list, or submit an issue on GitHub: >> >> https://github.com/python-excel/xlwt/issues >> >> There's also details of all things Python and Excel related here: >> >> http://www.python-excel.org/ Presumably xlwt has something to do with Python and eXceL ?

I agree that as announcements go, it lacks a little something, but it sounds like the xlwt project is being retired so it may not matter. -- Steven -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
