Open Office on Amiga

[MarkTime]

I know that no one wants to hear it can't be done, but I agree with KennyR.

AmigaOS is too far behind, too much not like linux, too much to write from scratch.

My idea for porting a browser, or this, would be just to port a linux environment to AmigaOS.   This has been done before.  

But it doesn't capture the imagination of the public nor other developers, and so, what I thought was the only reasonable path, doesn't appear will ever happen.

oh well, tis ashame.

I sometimes think that some in this communityl have observed the success of the Open Source movement and come to some very wrong assumptions about development.

Sometimes developers work on something without immediate expectations of payment.  But they almost never work without any reason.

One of my frequent motto's is this, the world is not insane.  The market is not insane, your neighbors aren't insane, and in this case, developers are not insane.

come up with a compelling reason, if its truly compelling, then it will succeed.
