I agree, a KDE app using Kirigami for a convergent user interface, and being able to easily deploy it to an APK for Android would make a pretty compelling story to get more KDE developers to make their app mobile-friendly, and at the same time, make KDE an interesting community to develop also mobile applications in, with the side-effect of enrichening the Plasma Mobile app ecosystem. -- sebas http://www.kde.org | http://vizZzion.org
