Hi Thomas,
Sorry for not being able to participate in the community bonding yet.
I am very busy with exams these days. Hope you noticed me in the proposal
that I am unable to actively participate until 10 th May. 1 exam got
postponed. I will start after 12th May and document the project details. I
made the proposal publicly available just for now. Hope 12 to 21 is enough
to catch up since XWiki mobile project is a bit separate from XWiki.
Thank you.
Best Regards.
