Hi there

There are a few things I would like to see done as part of this GSoC:
-Extend KDE Connect to receive/send files PC to PC.
-Rework network:/ kioslave (UPnP service discovering)
-Work on UPnP support (here you will need to do some research)

You mention in your email you have have experience with Qt, can you tell me 
exactly on which parts of Qt? Also if you could point me to some code of yours 
that would be awesome :)

Cheers!
