As one of the board members Randolph E-mailed & since I responded to
him; here are my thoughts.
IMHO there could be benefits to bundling LibreOffice with other
open-source products in one easy-to-get package (particularly for
systems with weak package management). The nice Valo CD does this eg.
Probably in future that advantage goes away in the future as app-stores
become far more popular & accessible.
On the other hand, I don't imagine we as TDF would want to do that just
now. Furthermore, if we had to bundle a browser why Dooble ? it looks
like a simple wrapper around webkit. Why would we not want to bundle
Chrome instead if WebKit is the answer ? or more likely Mozilla ?
Of course - if the Dooble guys want to bundle LibreOffice they are more
than welcome - the license allows that.
Furthermore this discussion in no way belongs on the developer list,
there is no code involved, please restrict replies to the discuss list.
HTH,
Michael.
