[Owncloud] ownCloud News App for Android

[Bernhard Posselt]

Awesome project, will test it as soon as I can ;)

Contrary to Alessandros opinion i dont think this will be a big problem. 
The people who install the app from github are either developers or very 
advanced testers. You actually want to make it easy for them to install 
the app to contribute to the project. Also they can build the project by 
themselves, it will be just another barrier for them to give you 
feedback or create PRs ;)

Furthermore it would be cool if you could offer some kind of license 
(proprietary, gplv3, whatever ;) ) so people dont think youve forgot that

@Alessandro: maybe we should focus on testing and contributing to that 
app during this month. We wont be able to finish our mobile app soon 
enough and this gives people the opportunity to switch to the news app 
after google reader closes ;)

PS: if youve got any whishes that'd make your life as an owncloud news 
API user easier, feel free to create an issue on github ;)
