Answering Kozzi's questions -

No. Any user can create a 'parser' which extracts the needed data from forum. It takes around 15-30 mins and needs only basic understanding of html. Real users have actually been able to create some parsers.

A Siilihai account is required for use. This allows for example syncing between computers and other stuff. Accountless
usage would be possible but not implemented yet.

Probably yes. Most phpBB, vBulletin and SMF-like forums can be supported.

TapaTalk would be a nice addition, as it is seems to be the most common API for forums. Adding it would relieve from creating a parser for each forum.

NIce, will be happy to do some "parser-ing" :D

hope it support non-latin language from day one :D maybe UTF-8 or let the user who parser choose the coding! or maybe auto detection.

Hi,

Sorry for slow response. I have a Harmattan version in the works and the code can be found at https://github.com/vranki/siilihai-mobile

It 'kinda works' but the UI is not very polished and authentication doesn't work yet. I'll try to allocate some time to finish the Harmattan version now that i know that someone is expecting for it.
