You can view the documents here (in XLS, ODF): * I have a moderately large collection of old BeOS software (back to about 1999), but I don't know of any BeOS apps which can view XLS or ODF files (Gobe Productive doesn't seem to import either). Do you have the list available in a more universal format? Alternatively I could put the entire collection on my Web server, so you can try requesting the files by name -- I think they mostly have their original BeBits filenames. That'd be easier than cross-referencing a large document. What's the policy on drivers, codecs and patches (which in some cases may never be compatible with Haiku)?
