I had no problems in compiling it as well as its dependencies, using the mud builder, and the resulting deb-packaged binaries do run in scratchbox/xephyr, but give some errors concerning fonts on the real tablet, and I couldn't figure out how to fix that.

Maybe someone has time and know-how to go farther with this project? That could be a nice fix, waiting for an Openoffice.org port ;-)
Seems a nice find, although the apps look a bit heavy on the toolbar department: Screen real estate is on a premium on the ITs. Gvu (the Ghostscript viewer) would be a nice add-on for those who like to take on QuickScript.
