Goodbye BitBucket
Around 2008-2009, I had the chance to work together with Python pioneers at Logilab when at a customer.They are great supporters of the Python ecosystem and used (at least then) Mercurial for all their code versioning needs.Coming from a CVS/Subversion heritage, I quickly found Mercurial to be a vastly superior solution and embraced it enthusiastically.

openpyxl repository change
Hi everyone, today I have decided to move the official openpyxl repository to a new location: http://bitbucket.org/openpyxl/openpyxl Why the change ? Because I am no longer the main contributor on the project, and I felt that I did not have anymore the privilege to have the project tied to my sole name. Also, as I’m not the only one to work on the […]

openpyxl @ fosdem 2014
Thanks to Stéphane Wirtel and his team for all his hard work on the Python FOSDEM dev room which successfully demonstrates that you can pack 200 geeks in a room designed for 90 standing people maximum, every year. (and hello to the poor guys who were left outside and had to watch my back through the […]

Openpyxl 2.0.0
This is a very important milestone for the project as version 2.0.0 is now tagged. This means we are confident enough to have it tested in the wild, despite the few changes required to enjoy it fully (mainly in styles department). As you might have noticed, even though we are sometimes backporting fixes to the […]

Upcoming changes for openpyxl
I’m announcing the last (or at least what I believe to be the last) 1.x release of openpyxl to be imminent. I’ll try to quickly fix all compatibility issues that arose since the last release so people can start using the development branch in other python versions than 2.7.5 … 2.x versions will then follow, […]

Why openpyxl development is stalled for now
I thought that I could communicate a bit more on why things haven’t seemed to move too much since my last announcement about how openpyxl development was going to rock in 2013. In January, I turned 30, but I also became pretty sick, and what was first diagnosed as simple cold was in fact a […]

openpyxl 1.6.1 is out !
First post-babies release, this is a “pull requests integration” release, plus a few fixes (including the infamous race-condition fix that was omitted in 1.5.8). A huge effort has been put over several months to make this version work on 2.x and 3.x flavors of Python, and except a few broken tests (due to an incompatible […]

Small compatibility release this time, no big features added, see the changelog by yourself: [iter_worksheet] add support for calculated strings (they have a special data type for that ?) [strings] make sure we always use unicode strings everywhere [iter] fixed max row and column detection for iter reader [styles] fixed custom number format detection under […]

openpyxl 1.5.5
After a long (long) break (sorry, I eventually bought a PS3, I knew this could happen), we come back with a new version of openpyxl ! This has been requested by a few people so here is a small changelog since the last (1.5.4 version): Commented out the ‘scheme’ element as it appears to prevent […]
