The viewer should run on any PalmOS® device running version 2.0.4 or higher of PalmOS, while the desktop tools are supported on Linux, Windows, Mac OS X, and OS/2.
As you know, the documentation is the last thing to be updated, and we can never track every single project out there using Plucker as an engine (there are now over 2-dozen of them, commercial and non).
And, no, I won't tell Aunt Tillie that she just has to pull the sources from CVS and compile if she wants to read a book.
Of course not, download the binaries provided on the other websites. In the case of Linux-based PDAs, use the reader packaged for those platforms (we don't provide packages for them, of course, thats not our job). The same goes for the PocketPC and WindowsMobile versions. I'm not sure about a Symbian version, but I know Plucker runs on that new Nokia/Linux tablet device.
Is this thing GPLed? Why don't I find any reference to this on the plucker site?
Perhaps you didn't look? Its been there for almost exactly 2 years: http://www.plkr.org/news/31 As for the "cobwebs" on the site, the Plucker site is being rewritten from the ground up, and that includes catching up on about 30 news articles that have to be made public as well. We all have day jobs and that takes away from our time to play with these kinds of things. I've recently been asking the community to help us bring the docs and FAQ and other bits up to date, but the response has been depressingly light. http://code.plkr.org/docwiki/ And some things I've been working on are over here: http://code.plkr.org/ David A.
