LibreOffice is not a set of application.. it is one integrated office suite. > > There are a number of opensource alternatives to products like autocad but > none of them seem actively developed, a quick tour via google find some that seems to be quite lively. http://librecad.org/cms/home.html for example seems like something you may want to check-out > so we would like to know to which > extent it is possible to have a libreoffice application be developed outside > the current choices of language+build system. Very unlikely. and what would be the point anyway. if the language and the build system is not to your liking, why bother trying to peg a square in a round hole ? it surely would be much simpler to find a project that 1/ is related to your subject matter and 2/ already share your tool choices... Or even start one from scratch would be preferable rather than waste a lot of effort and time working around/against establish patterns.
