being my first mail to the list, I wish to congratulate the developers
for an excellent work.

a suggestion:  the documentation is perfect, but I do not like the use
of brandnames like 'Excel'.  please use spreadsheet application
instead.

The first two occurrences could be replaced.  

For the last one, it's more like a joke -- so "spreadsheet application"
would flatten things too much :) Let's keep the reference and play with
periphrastically ways of referring: 

... « try that with the I-can't-compute-850*77.1-spreadsheet-app! »

Other proposals?
