  • Now you longer need to specify headerrows="2" for proper sorting, it detects the number of header rows automatically

• CommentPlugin: Date filed should be used for "action" template
  • Use DatePickerPlugin for this
  • Michael G to file bug item

• SpreadSheetPlugin: Support German number format
  • USA notation 12,345.60 is 12.345,60 in Germany
  • To support German notation we need a new preferences setting
