Hi Mike,

I fully agree that interoperability is an important feature. I can still remember when Excel took the spreadsheet market away from lotus 1-2-3 (way way back then...)

I hope you will be pleased to hear that I've implemented the shared strings requirement on master. Worksheets generated with axlsx now properly open in Numbers (sans charts), but there is still something missing to inter-op cleanly with google docs.

I've pinged google to get more information.

In the mean time, if you would like to kick out a pull request for your changes to the gemspec, I will happily accept.
I expect to be releasing .17 early next week as there is an outstanding request for serializing to StringIO as well that my team needs.

Warmest regards,

Randy
