Re: [libreoffice-users] Libreoffice for Android?

2014-07-29 Thread Brian A. Colucci

Greetings To The Libre OFfice World!

If you do not have a browser handy, and want to see the news, here it is:


   LibreOffice for Mobile will be soon a reality

This week too, we saw a rather huge announcement^[21] 
https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/LOWN/3#cite_note-mobileLibO-21 . 
As a reminder, at the first LibreOffice conference The Document 
Foundation announced plans to migrate LibreOffice to mobile devices, but 
not by rewriting our office suite from scratch, but by reusing 90% of 
the code base and writing 10% exclusively for the target platform. The 
migration of 90% of the code base was actually made. What we need is to 
work on the 10% side, actually the UI stuff. A Michael Meeks interview 
at FOSDEM 2013 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E2vNTkTQi60 (until 
2m25s) showed in which direction the development was going on.


As you see on the demo made by Michael in the afore mentionned video and 
according to what I could actually test on my mobile device a year ago 
https://twitter.com/willubuntu/status/362977920454635520, the 
LibreOffice code is currently compiling great on Android (and on iOS 
too), but the UI is clearly not adapted. Android has currently a working 
viewer which has to be improved continuously to integrate the UI 
allowing document to be modified. Until now, progress on this side was 
community driven and thus improvement were rather low. But this is gonna 
change.


Indeed, Smoose, a company from Netherlands, driven by open source 
projects, provided funding for LibreOffice to run on Android.


Ideas from the previous LibreOffice Android Viewer (showed in the above 
video) were taken back and merged with the Fennec browser (Firefox 
Mobile). Indeed, rendering a webpage or rendering an office document, is 
basically the same, and Mozilla already fixed most of the developpement 
problems LibreOffice developers would need to solve; Why reivent the 
wheel? At this stage, a working tiled viewer is already working. I have 
not had the opportunity to test it by myself on my own device yet, but 
the first impressions were actually great, because the app is quite 
reactive and smooth as it is accelerated by OpenGL. We see here the 
first positive effects of the LibreOfficeKit interface we wrote about in 
one of the previous LibreOffice Weekly report.


According to the developers working on this side of the LibreOffice 
project, thanks to the funding brought by Smoose, we could already have 
a working viewer for LibreOffice 4.4 which should be released this fall.

Hi :)
Thanks Sophie! :)  I had lost the link and was getting flustered here so my
1st answer wasn't helpful.  Thanks for filling in the missing link! :)
