We are ok with this and we are available if you want to ask us any questions.

Also, If you could make the importer as a lib or at least detached
from your main code, we could use that later for the common lib. I'm
thinking data-resources, like in Plasma or Akonadi.
BTW, I think the common lib to exchange data among apps will be the
most important topic we have for the meeting.
