Fair enough. I'd be happy to change the language, but I don't think that would
resolve the issue...

I don't think we need to make solid plans at this point in the process. My
intention with this bug is to use it as a notification that it's something
we're thinking about as a project, because so many users are asking for Android
support.

If we want to do something specific, such as fix the .apk's so that our size is
small enough to fit in the App store, then that can be a separate bug, and can
be linked from here.

>From an end-user support perspective, we need to have a consistent message to
tell to those who ask about Android support. IMHO it shouldn't be something
nebulous like "read the developer list archives" -- I'd really like there to be
some place (a URL) we can send users, either on Bugzilla or the wiki or the
website where they can read the current status of LibreOffice on Android.

If our plan is to consider LO on Android an entirely new piece of software,
then I think we should tell our users that. Perhaps that message will also help
to communicate the fact that it will be quite some time before we'll have
something ready for them.
