Hi,
         I have exported a handful of functions to Gnumeric through the
Python plugin and the QuantLib-Python wrappers. It was just a proof of
concept, and almost certainly I won't have time to pursue this. I can put
them somewhere for perusal if you want. The real question is, is this what
you had in mind, or you'd rather develop native wrappings? (i.e., C++ to
Gnumeric without passing through Python)

Later,
