Out of the box it is pretty hard to achieve what you are after. If you use the VSTO Contrib project's Ribbon Factory you can reuse the ribbon viewmodel's between all of the add-ins pretty easily I think. vstocontrib.codeplex.com/ In addition, I would then manually go and edit your .

Csproj file of the shared project to conditionally include specific references so you do not have all the office interop libraries referenced at once.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
