Re: [Quantlib-dev] QuantLibXL / ObjectHandler 1.0.1 Prerelease Files

As far as I remember some Quantlib functionality (e.g. LMM?) was only
available in Excel through QuantLibXL Framework. So I think those of
Quantlib users, who prefer to use an Excel interface, would be
definitely interested to be able to use the Framework also with a
version 1.01.
