Not trying to put down the hard work the KOffice team has done or anything, but I'd like to see a version of Abiword make it into Maemo 5, too.

As well as a version of Openoffice.org. Come on it's not impossible.

I agree that it isn't impossible. But a someone (maybe it would take a team of UI people) needs to overhaul the complex OpenOffice UI and make it finger-friendly, ie Hildonise it.

If they could that with KWord (which is a ui nightmare imho) they can for sure with OOO that has a more "mainstream" (boring) ui.

I totally agree.

But Nokia has more invested in QT apps (ie KOffice) than they do in Sun's open source office suite. So I can't blame them for making the choice that they made. Well, OK, I can blame them a bit, but I can understand why they did it.

Tomaszd:

That is a good example of the problem, not the solution. I already got that far in Fremantle, too.

Gratuitous repost:

It is important to note 'killall' is not the same across all Unices. On Solaris 'killall' literally kills all running processes. Whenever possible, you should use 'pkill' instead, which does what you want, and is the same across Unices, eg "pkill abiword".
