Hi Zachary,
I did not hear about somebody starting such a port. I know that a port
for Linux arm-eabi has been done by Caolán McNamara and by Peter Naulis
which I believe might be a good starting point but It's just a guess
because this is not my expertise. If you want to volunteer on porting
OpenOffice.org to Android then please contact the team at the porting
project at http://porting.openoffice.org. Be aware that porting to the
underlying processor architecture on one operating system platform is
just a starting point. I believe that there's a lot more work to be done
to get the OpenOffice.org's UI to render on Android. And maybe some of
the tooling needed has to be ported and/or to be improved before
starting with the rest. For example I do not know if the gcc cross
compilation to arm-eabi will manage the whole build. Maybe the somehow
stripped libc (called bionic) on Android won't provide all symbols
needed (just a guess...).
Why do you prefer to have it on Honeycomb instead of having it on
Gingerbread or on Froyo or on earlier systems instead ? I would love to
see it on my Froyo device... Or maybe you want to plan to make int run
on the current development codline Ice Cream which is planned to merge
2.x and 3.x codelines together ?

To Whom It May Concern:
I know this has probably been asked many times, but is a port of openoffice
in the works for android (specifically Honeycomb)? Any information at all
would be appreciated.
Kind regards, Joost
