Well, I'd just say you are on schedule.  We are going slow this week
since you said that you have finals to deal with this week.  Plus we are
still in the community bonding period, so we can take it a bit slow this
week while you are getting your finals taken care of.

That said, let's take care of getting you a commit access this week, and
get your feature branch set up.  This wiki page

http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development/NewAccount

gives you an overview of how to get a new account, which contains a link
to this freedesktop page

http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/AccountRequests

Michael (CC'ed) has an admin privilege for creating new accounts on the
freedesktop git repos, so when you file a bug requesting for a new
account, you need to put him in the CC of that bug.

Once you have an account set up, we'll pick a reasonably buildable
master snapshot to branch off of.  Then we'll use that branch for your
project for the rest of your GSoC period.

Also, this may be a good time to familiarize yourself with callgrind,
which is a tool used with valgrind to profile an application.  So far
the best page that explains callgrind is this old wiki page

http://wiki.services.openoffice.org/wiki/Callgrind

From OOo.  We'll probably need to have our own page for callgrind
howto's, but I digress...  You'll start using this tool at some point
during your GSoC period, so you need to be familiar with this tool.
Sooner you get familiar the better.

That's about it for now, I guess.  Let's take care of your account
creation first, then we'll move on to tackling the cell value import.

All the best,

Kohei
