[GRASS-user] grass on an Android Phone

Hi,

Has anyone heard of a successful installation of GRASS (and associated 
toolchain) on an Android phone? They run linux, but probably lack on-board 
resources for hosting an entire development toolkit. However... it seems like 
it would be possible to use a cross-compiler to generate a statically-linked 
set of binaries (or pile of required .so files) for this platform...

Some ideas here:

android-15.html

android.html

It would be pretty cool to get GRASS, or something like GRASS running on 
Android devices.

Cheers,
Dylan
