I would volunteer, since I am already a little familiar with libmtp due to my 
(currently stagnant work, kudos to my master thesis) on the kio-mtp slave. 
Since I will be travelling after completing said thesis I would only be able 
to start around Christmas.

One Problem that I see is that many Android Devices as of now do not support 
the tracks API (or at least not properly). So one would have to work around 
that, as that should be the preferred way to access misuci files on a MTP 
device.

Cheers,
