I am surprised that the Enterprise edition is missing the option to export as an Excel file, eagerly waiting for future releases.

Our issue is that we hired an intern to code FizzBuzz, and he mistakenly coded it as divisible by 3 for Fizz, divisible by 4 for Buzz, and divisible by 13 for FizzBuzz. Now, our sales force runs on this modified FizzBuzz. We cannot simply accept an additional unvetted FizzBuzz, even if it strictly adheres to the standard.

This version on GitHub looks solid, but it needs an Enterprise Compatibility Mode that loads an external emulation mode for modified Fizz, Buzz, and FizzBuzz values in order for adoption to take place.

Anxiously awaiting your pull request.
Sorry, the change has been made internally but publishing it would violate our internal legal policies.
I cannot publish any source codes or share designs that would violate employer confidentiality or disclose protected commercial IP.
You can buy that as an add-on, a consultant will install that within only a few months.
Of course it goes without saying, ongoing support will cost you extra.
When you do add Excel functionality, please ensure that it supports Excel 95 fully, as we need it to be compliant with our bidding solutions for government contracts.

We have a proprietary method for up-converting it before bidding on military contracts.

Also, we'll need you to supply an on-site support technician to handle any issues that may arise.
And LDAP authentication.
Surly a full x.500 implementation not this hippy open source nonsense :-)
After AD auth and SSO.
If I didn’t have twelve other things going on right now, I would totally file a PR for that.

But there are so many flavors of CSV file to choose from. So I’d have to make that pluggable too.
