Does anyone have info on what the tidy team's view is on the assortment of Excel packages? Whether they have considered writing a more expansive Excel package? I know Jenny has been quoted as saying that this space could use more hands. (I feel this would make an interesting tidyverse blog post.)
We now have:
- openxlsx2
- openxlsx (not being maintained)
- XLConnect (Mirai Solutions)
- xlsx
- readxl (tidyverse)
- writexl (ropensci)
