</div> Certainly. In fact Android for tablet or mobile would need to use the<br>
same rendering approach anyway I think, so - I wouldn't worry about<br>
<div class="im">that.<br>

</div> Oh - well; if you git clone the repos, then you can commit to your<br>
local git repository of course.<br>
<br>
As/when you have something that is more generally useful we can get<br>
that into master, as/when it starts to be interesting for others to work<br>
with you - we'll get a commit account setup so you can push to a feature<br>
branch.<br></blockquote><div><br>Perfect.<br> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;">
<br>
How does that sound ? For the while - I suggest you work in your own<br>
git repo, (and I'd recommend getting a Linux build working first so<br>
you're familiar with the build etc.) - and then look at the<br>
cross-compilation.<br></blockquote><div><br>Good ideias and I'll follow your advices.<br> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;">
<br>
Some other thoughts are: perhaps as a first set of tasks - we would<br>
want to have a -very- cut-down build mode: that throws away lots of<br>
pieces that we don't want: to save size, eg. I don't think 'base'<br>
belongs on a tablet (with hsqldb), nor binfilter, nor rhino or<br>
beanshell, no wizards, and no templates. Possibly our older filter<br>
formats: lwp, wpd, works, dbase, etc. could be thrown overboard too.<br>
<br>
Possibly it would make sense working on creating a distro-config/ file<br>
(that we can use with autogen.sh) that builds an absolutely minimal<br>
LibreOffice - with as much minority feature-weight removed as possible.<br>
Potentially that means adding new compile options to disable things (eg.<br>
the Java wizards). Possibly we would want to also be able to cut out<br>
things un-needed in a reader - such as the gallery eg.<br></blockquote><div><br>I couldn't agree more with you!<br> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;">
<br>
All of that should be easy to write and test, on a stock Linux machine<br>
without worrying about cross-compilation etc.<br></blockquote><div><br>I hope so :)<br> </div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;">
