Hi Priyanka,

this sounds great. I can try to mentor you if you agree.

The idea of the eBook app is that it show all the pdf (and perhaps other 
formats too) that are uploaded to ownCloud in a nice interface.
For the beginning would be a simple list. Cooler would be to have it as 
thumbnails in the future.
We want to have a class in the ownCloud core than can generate thumbnails for 
different filetypes anyways.

If the user clicks on a pdf than it open with the existing pdf viewer that we 
already have in ownCloud for reading.

Cool addition features would be to share it with others (MTGap has a nice 
sharing API to do that)
or we could add a button that sends the pdf by email to a Kindle or converts it 
to different formats.

What do you think?


Frank
