--- Comment #1 from jonathon <toki.kantoor@gmail.com> ---
Javelin and Improv were financial forecasting/modeling tools. Their secondary
function was general business intelligence.

They required data input to adhere to a very specific set of rules. 
Basically, it was what, when, where, and numbers. The specific activity was
irrelevant. Consequently, it could be used with equal ease to predict the
number of deaths in a specific location each month, or the future gross profit
for a specific location in a specific month.

If your data was periodic, and you needed periodic based forecasts, the tool
was, for you, mandatory.
If either your data was not periodic, or you did not need periodic based
forecasts, the tool was, for you, useless.  

The simplest route for LibO to clone Javelin, would be to rewrite the extension
that enables R functionality within Calc, such that it automatically installs
all of the needed dependencies, then write a _LibO with R_  manual, using
examples similar to those in the original Javelin documentation, as well as
more recent Business Intelligence examples.
