Hi everyone,

Here is an email for incubating a new KDE project: Kiview.
Kiview is a simple file previewer written in C++/Qml, from its README:
```
Kiview gives the user the ability to quickly preview different file types
without the need to launch the default application.
```

The original author Danilo Agostini and myself (its sponsor) have been
getting it ready for incubation.

We have now checked all the  **KDE Incubator checklist** points.

More details:

https://invent.kde.org/danagost/Kiview/-/issues/1

The immediate goal with this application is to fill this request feature
for dolphin :
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=272539
And we can imagine reusing it in many other places potentially.

Short-term we want to have runtime integration within dolphin and make sure
it is as-snappy as can be.

Cheers,

-- 
Méven
