Is there any blueprint or README that explains the protocol?

I do not think that this very app should have native look’n’feel because UI is not the most important part in this case.

I actually agree that the user interface should still be written with the platform's SDK to integrate with the system look and feel, but a bunch of the core classes that run under the hood could be reused across platforms.

I just don't want that to happen again with Windows Phone. But if you are going to maintain your app afterwards, then it's your choice to use C++ code or just re-write it in .NET.

It could be reused on WinRT or Windows 8 though as they have almost the same API. Currently I am tinkering with the debugger around android branch but in order to start off the actual coding a bit faster I am requesting sort of document on this.

After all, it could be a good idea to make it GSoC project if you wish. But I can't promise that I will come up with something that _works_ in the meantime as I'm studying at university (except summer of course =))
