Thanks for all the help and input from everyone so far :)<br>
<br>
I have updated the plan a bit according to the new feedback.<br>
<br>
* for cache, I think it will be a great extension for the app. I will<br>
see if I can find some time to work on this when the core part is<br>
stable enough.<br>
* for collaborate with marble, yes, it's already included in the plan.<br>
Will discuss with them on stuff like how the communication API should<br>
be designed.<br>
