[Kde-silk] Introducing Project Silk

[Sebastian Kügler]

Hey,

How about we meet on IRC to discuss details a bit and come to a plan we can then 
follow? I'm on a business trip right now, but will be back on Friday. Friday 
afternoon would suit me well, otherwise, next week I'll be very flexible in terms of 
time.

The web identify is I think more a "write code thing", and I think less interesting 
from a research point of view. Abstracting existing webservices to a common API seems 
like good thing to tackle, the public transport API is a really good candidate and 
probably very easy to explain to others. Should we focus on that one?
