I think there are interesting ways we can extend FSS and UI Enhancer
to fulfill this role. Jacob has already built some support for a
simplified layout which we could conceivably break down into smaller
bits - say a screen per section and may render reasonably well on a
mobile device. Clearly we will need to build in more semantic
information on the page as Clayton mentioned above. An automated
solution could help to reduce the resource requirement on a museum.
Although this may not result in the perfect mobile experience, we
would build the solution to be pluggable (as is the Fluid way) so that
when resources exist to improve on the automated solution that could
be done.
