Not really.  I'd like to merge them on some level shortly as I sync
the approach of goffice plugins with the gnome-office versions.
Unfortunately with 49 plugins in gnumeric change takes time.
There's a huge amount of stuff in goffice now that I've ripped out a
big chunk of gnumeric.  So I suspect that the best approach will be
to merge from gnome-office into goffice.  First I want to get a
release out and let people request other bits of gnumeric
    eg The locale selector widget

then take the next steps to sync things.  The plugin loaders are
already almost the same.
