= Import / Export XLS spreadsheets

== Description

This plugin allows you to export a ticket list into an Excel spreadsheet file (xls-format) and import the tickets back into the same Trac environment. This Excel file can be modified, but the columns Id and summary must be maintained. To add new tickets, the Id column must stay empty.

This plugin adds a button to the admin panel to allow the export and import of Trac tickets. The dependencies are the Python packages [pypi:xlwt] and [pypi:xlrd].
