I've been in touch with some of them via IRC, but not with Hubert, who seems to be spearheading the Maemo effort, so I'm not sure about their exact plans. Unfortunately, I haven't had much luck contacting him yet. It's worth repeating that this is in no way an official release, but I've grown a bit impatient because I really want to start using my tablet as my full-time machine and the lack of a decent word processor is the only obstacle remaining (for me).

I'm also not a *real* programmer, so right now I can't contribute that much. That said, after a whole day spent hacking, I found the source of the bug that crashes AbiWord when you open up the Format Table dialog box and I submitted a patch to the devs. That's my very first code contribution to open source (albeit it was just a faulty XML file)! Hopefully it will get merged upstream soon, especially because I think it may be linked to a number of AbiWord bugs on the tablets. I will upload new binaries later today.
