[Kstars-devel] KStars Lite progress

[Jasem Mutlaq]

Excellent progress Artem, really happy to see KStars Lite coming along
nicely! The next milestone is quite significant and hopefully we can
concentrate on making KStars Lite a pleasant experience for users of low
powered and small factor devices.

Keep up the beautiful work!

Regards,
Jasem
