SUBTOTAL, TEXT, TRUNC
* support evaluation of indirect defined names in INDIRECT
* numerous fixes and performance optimizations in the Formula
Evaluation module
* ability to add, modify and remove series from HSSF Charts
* numerous improvements in the cell data formatter (handling more
formatting rules, better color detection, allow overriding of default
locale)

* initial support for the HWPF revision marks authors list
* support for border codes in HWPF
* support for processing of symbols in HWPF

* add PublisherTextExtractor support to extractorfactory
* support attachments as embedded documents within the new
OutlookTextExtactor
