Package management is key to getting large apps like Open Office ported.
Without package management developers can't pool resources as
efficiently as with package management, and will be less able to take on
large projects.
The absence of high-profile ports is less of a reflection of the priorities of
the
Haiku project than a reflection of the size of the Haiku developer community.
