I think we should all thank OBATA Akio for doing such a great job in
fixing our open pkg PRs.

The Package of the Month award goes to antixls (pkgsrc/math/antixls),
nominated by Daniel Carosone. Dan writes:

	Microsoft Excel has a mindbogglingly annoying habit of
	changing the binary content of .xls files, even when just
	opening the file to look at the content, and even when telling
	it to open the file "Read Only"!  When tracking binary .xls
	files under revision control, this can result in a lot of
	spurious conflicts.  Hooking antixls into the monotone VCS as
	an external diff helper does a wonderful job of identifying
	such content-free changes.  (Convincing users to store files
	in another format that allowed easier merging of legitimate
	changes hasn't been so successful).
