I think it was mentioned that there were at one point over 100 million LibreOffice/OOo

100 million potential users for our product. Not only that, the LibreOffice Reader would
be compatible with the LibreOffice suite and possibly code. This would give the LibO
Reader a good start.
ODF and PDF are actually complementary. One is a format for editable documents,
the other is a format for final-form documents. I suggest that the best path
forward would be to seek a single, lightweight, cross-platform reader for both
formats. That would address by far the largest opportunity.

IIRC Adobe Reader has bloated over the last couple of years from a very
lean program for reading PDF files to something very huge. Also the
auto update updates versions all too frequently.
