Re: [tdf-discuss] LO & OO are not the only competitors of MSOffice... LO could also make a simple office suite that runs in Android & iOS

For Android and iPhone it doesn't make sense to have the whole LO, only
Clac, Writer & Impress are needed urgently!

If LO manages to place those three apps for Android, ODF will gain momentum.

Cheers!
