The conversation basically went to think ahead on the way people use OOo. To not think in few 'catch up' features for OOo but to actually innovate and have a PDF moment comparing to the year OOo integrated the export to PDF in OOo. We need to do things that the competition haven't thought about doing instead of just following trends. The future is mobile computing and seamless web integration. OOo lite to run on Android handsets would be a killer, especially if it also enabled seamless publishing of HTML5 documents. Somehow I am not sold on that idea. I have an N900 which is arguably the best phone out there in the market. It has a phisical keybard and a digital one touch keyboard. I run an application called MaStory (http://maemo-wordpy.garage.maemo.org ). Beautiful app with lots of support for high level formating to do your blog. Is the closest you will get for a word processor. It supports Media, image editors, tags, categories metadata, links. Even configure the time and date of the post to go live. To a degree it holds almost the same amount of features of OOo Writer. I have a Samsung Galaxy S Android with ThinkFree office. (There is a missed opportunity.) If I plug it into a monitor and a keyboard I don't think I would notice much difference to using my netbook which has OOo on it for 99% of what I do (Possibly 100%) However that said, is PAINFULL to blog on the N900. I will never write more than a few lines, and havent even been keen into managing media inside the document. The keyboard on the N900 is pretty good, maybe a bit small, but also have talked with Blackberry users that use a blog client and they also agree that they will never do a blog with more than 1 paragraph from their blackberry. Think a bit laterally. You really don't need to limit the device to its current physical size limitations. With i-pads etc there is going to be a massive wave of spin-off devices based on phone technology and this is certainly going to encroach into the traditional laptop space if not displace it altogether. Connecting a keyboard and HDTV is trivially simple. ok yes changing the hardware does come through as any other computer OS. This is the similar idea from the NeoRunner (OpenMoko) thing that maddog want's to do on using the mobile as a CPU of a larger device. Now the next step is how to make OOo run within a mobile OS, if we take Android, IOS, Windows Mobile and Meego as the standard smartphones OS (Blackberry and Symbian are not included). We can see that software-wise OOo only have a chance in Meego without needing to be re-written. Android Java utilities makes us recode OOo (which is 15 M lines of code to Java), or Objective-C in case of IOS. An alternative like the OOo-Net could work where we just develop the interface separated from the OOo engine. That way we can have interfaces develop on the native toolkit for most of the things around supported. The demand from a word processor usually involves a multipage document, that I think will never work from within a mobile phone at least with the current hardware. Duhh...plug it into a bigger screen and keyboard :-) Take a netbook case with screen and keyboard and battery. Plug in your phone and you have both a netbook and a charging station for your phone. It's only a matter of time. Let's skate to where the puck is going to be not where it is now. BTW, I have now agreement for endorsement from the UK Sector skills Council for an accredited certification of OOo. next step is to go through the Ofqual accreditation procedure but they are just changing the IT system so that might take a few weeks.

OOo lite to run on Android handsets would be a killer, especially if it also enabled seamless publishing of HTML5 documents. He did mentioned areas of innovation like mobile, cloud (but a different cloud), focus on the integration and also talk about how we can rethink some of the components like OpenOffice.org Web which is a dead module. Change from an HTML editor and think more of a information processor, including authoring of things that you use in web like Blogs, etc. There was some input from Lars and Dimitri (I think) as well at the end of the presentation.

Best Regards, Luiz Oliveira PS: We have the file (odp) and summary of your presentation at OOoCon I have seen references to OOo 4.0 and now 5.0, what about fixing the problems and bugs in the current versions. Looking ahead is great and gives something to shoot for but problems exist _now_ that need to be fixed. Just my 2 cents.

Looking ahead is great and gives something to shoot for but problems exist _now_ that need to be fixed. Because a. Charles is not a developer, b. the talk was a design talk not a bugfixing talk. c. I agree, that we can do macros that can automate some of the painful tasks that gets complicated in OOo like having a page horizontal on a document with just one click; or a one click good pagination format for books numbering. Just my 2 cents.
