I've done a nice experiment with SocialCalc and I'm pretty happy of the

It allows to edit a spreadsheet stored in a Wiki Page. It lacks a

Very very nice, seems like you made interesting progress since yersterday
:-)
Can the macro already be published on
code.xwiki.org as is? Does it
require more than the macro page
to work? If not I can publish
http://www.myxwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/XWiki/SocialCalcMacro
on
code.xwiki.org right away - although I'm not sure where the underlying JS
code is located right now.
Looks cool :)
Is there a way we can use social-calc / gdocs (or both) to allow users to
edit / save attached excel documents? . Didn't do any research myself, just
asking in case you have already done that part ;)
Not yet. I guess we'd need to write some kind of transformation thing on the
backend to allow editing an attached Excel spreadsheet right from the wiki
page but that would be pretty cool :-)

*Can I import an Excel spreadsheet into SocialCalc?**
**Right now you can import data from Excel by selecting a range in Excel,
copying it to the clipboard, and then doing a "Ctrl-V" paste in SocialCalc.
The values are pasted - no formats and no formulas. In the future we plan to
have more extensive Excel import, so that you can upload an Excel file and
turn it into a SocialCalc page, preserving some of the formatting and
(hopefully) formulas (where there is functional overlap). Macros will not be
imported. CSV file format import is also planned at some point.**
**Can I export from SocialCalc to Excel?**
**You can copy a range of data in SocialCalc (e.g., Ctrl-C) and then paste
it into Excel. CSV export will be available by July 17. Excel export is on
roadmap

So it looks like there's still some work to do for this to work.

Anyway, that's a good start!
