A little question about other palttforms
Dear AOO Devs, rob weir did a nice conclusion of the download statistic for AOO 4.0. 1. Congratulations to the growing interest for AOO and your sucessfull release of 4.0 2. The statistic shows that windows is the main plattform for AOO. Since Apples success with their touchscreen-powered smartphone and tablet, tablets with Android and iOS gets more and more important. Do you plan a mobile touchscreen-optimized version of AOO 4 in the future to be prepared for the shift from PC to mobil plattforms like Android or iOS? Whats about an AOO Version running in a webbrowser with cloud-connection (i personaly dont like clouds, but they get more and more popular)? I thinks its important to move with the changes in the IT-World to survive... greetings, BugfinderX
