Hi all,

of course (nearby) nobody will use an Android Handy to write a Novel or 
similar; nevertheless, yesterday in the omnibus, I watched a young woman 
and was fascinated concerning the speed she wrote on a handy only using 
her thumbs. I'm afraid she was faster than me here typing with 10 fingers.


But I think an android tablet or even a smartphone can be quite a nice 
ODF document viewer, may be with smaller edits in the documents or so, 
you can use LibO for creation of simple documents from Templates 
(timesheet, directly signed by the customer on the screen in a DRAW OLE 
object ...).


And LibO seems not to be the spear head there, please see 
http://softmaker.com/english/ofacomp_en.htm!


On my Android tablet I use a different ODF viewer (forgot the name, 
result is not satisfying), because Versions from 
daily/master/Android-... crashed during installation).


So we need to interest more new additional Hackers helping to create a 
LibO Android suite based on the current Master, including Documentation, 
Project info, ... .


Best regards


Rainer Bielefeld

Hi :)  
No.  At least i think the  answer to that is no

I think  how many might is a moving target.  At the moment those devices are 
probably not seen as good things to use to edit documents.  

Pi is more about learning programming  and building bits of hardware.  Android 
is more about just catching little snippets of information and looking up odd 
things before arriving at home or at the office.  If you planned to work on 
documents on-the-move then you would probably use  something larger than a 
netbook.  

LO could change all that.  With a docking station 
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Docking_station
hand-held, mobile and just tiny  devices could really start to take-over from 
desktops for certain usages.  Also while on-the-move LO provides more options 
and more easily for minimising the UI so that screen's real estate could show 
more of a document while still having a useful menu or customised tool-bar.  

It'd be interesting to see if Android started becoming even more popular 
because it becomes an office in your pocket due to LO.  

Of course desktops still have a greater capacity to be more powerful, greater 
local storage and easier to tinker with, fix and upgrade but people are all 
excited about moving to mobile devices.  LO has an opportunity to be ahead of 
the game a bit. especially with all the good work that has gone into 
stream-lining the program over the last couple of years.  

Regards from
Tom :)

Hi,

I agree with the arguments here. My conclusion: if there is a relevant Number 
of early adopters, who might find the Feedback item in Help menu, we should 
have something in BSA finding the appropriate Hardware-OS combination (may be 
with additional hint in comment). This combination(s) also should be mentioned 
on https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/BugReport_Details.

My question: do we know how many users might use LibO on Android / Raspberry 
Pi?
