Some ideas: (1) A panel or talk comparing Flex, Cordova, and OpenOffice. There are many levels to compare. Technology. All three are "code/community" contributions to the ASF from major companies: Adobe, Oracle and IBM. Cordova is still a corporate product as Phonegap. Each has "pushed" the ASF in some ways. Flex with much less friction compared to Cordova who wanted to do continually releases, etc.
(2) AOO Application and new tooling around UNO, etc. (3) ? Regards, Dave Sent from my iPhone > On Feb 5, 2016, at 2:46 PM, Dennis E.
