It is interesting how Cordova and Flex are different, but are concerned with 
client-facing technologies.

Apache OpenOffice is probably the most heavily-client project that the ASF has, 
and Corinthia, had it endured, would be somewhere between these two kinds of 
client worlds.

I can imagine an AOO-related contribution to a client-side track at ApacheCon 
NA.  For example, one could address the challenges of the changing faces of 
platforms and cloud-supported apps, for example, perhaps even a panel 
discussion.

There is always the question of how AOO could pivot to this new world of 
ecosystems, app stores, and distributed operation.  It raises the question of 
whether and how it should provide tooling and reference implementations but not 
deliver integrated solutions, leaving that to downstream consumers, while 
sustaining the desktop-exclusive client pretty much as it is, working from 
standard file formats.

ApacheCon NA (North Americal) is in Vancouver, British Columbia, Canada, on May 
11-13, 2016.

The instructions for submitting talk proposals are at 
<http://events.linuxfoundation.org/events/apachecon-north-america/program/cfp>.

The deadline for initial proposals is in one week, Friday, February 12.

If a panel discussion format were proposed, all of the panelists need to be 
identified in the proposal.
