GSoC'15 project: Improve MPRIS plug-in of KDE Connect and create a remote control for PMC

[Ashish Madeti]

Hi all !!
I discussed with Albert, Shantanu and several others about a project for
this year's GSoC. I want to improve the MPRIS plug-in of kdeconnect by
adding tracklist MPRIS interface support and want to create a custom
plug-in which acts as a remote control for Plasma Media Centre.
I also wanted to add several more features like:
 1) Showing cover art of the now playing media [1].
 2) Notification area support [2].
 3) Lock screen support [3].

As Albert mentioned that he won't be able to mentor the project, is it
possible for someone else in the kdeconnect team to mentor me?

What do you think of these features? I saw a branch in the
kdeconnect-android repo with name "feature/noti-mediacontrol", so is
somebody else working on the second feature, or is it OK to include it in
my GSoC project?
