Hi,
I for one don´t ´need´ an AJAX / HTML5 version of AOO... GDocs is fine...
I personally think browser based apps are a pig, and doing apps in
JScript is insane. I had Chrome open the other day just with GMail and
it was using over 150 MB of RAM....
A thin client virtualized version on the other hand would use the PC´s
CPU and horsepower and deliver great speed to even to lowest powered
devices.
I'd prefer to have a web server based application which I could setup at
home and what I could configure it to be used from everywhere I have IP
access (private cloud) to. The data transmission should run in a secure
way (at least via https) and it should include a login mechanism to
access it. Basing the application development on ODF file format
features for this webapp would ease it's deployment because files
created with this webapp would automatically be compatible to AOO. And a
webapp can be configured to run on whatever client you want it to run
on. Wether it uses JS or some other technology is not that important as
well as it's not that important to have a document that is rendered 100%
like within AOO. More important is the ability to modify documents on
the go eg. from a mobile.
Kind regards,
Joost
