Geoffrey De Smet commented on JBRULES-2936:
-------------------------------------------

@Jesper Would you mind making a 2 minute pull request for it?
1) Go to this url:
  https://github.com/droolsjbpm/drools/blob/master/drools-decisiontables/src/main/java/org/drools/decisiontable/parser/xls/ExcelParser.java
2) Click the button "edit"
3) Make the changes
4) Use a commit comment with this jira id in it.

Better yet, but this will take longer: fork drools, fix it, compile and test it, write a unit test and send it as a pull request.

> Excel (like windows) probably has crappy encoding standardization (as in none at all), so I suspect that we 'll need to ask the excel document what encoding (or even what locale) it is and read the data in that encoding.
