Thanks geneven for priceless feedback.

I suggested Knights only to see if we can save Qt code work. That is for andybehr to decide since I'm useless at that level.

And for sure we shouldn't reinvent what Scid and others have been providing for years. It was good news to know that there are active maintainers again! They even came up with a Pocket version: http://scid.sourceforge.net/scidpocket.html

Scid lacks finger UI and apparently also chat, so there is a possibility for nice combination. I have linked to the dependences at http://wiki.maemo.org/Miniature#Technology_selections , also for Crafty. I have no clue about how well separated they have engine and UI layers but hopefully someone will be able to see and decide.

I have also started to list priorities in the roadmap: http://wiki.maemo.org/Miniature#Features_and_roadmap

andybehr, where do you think we should aim for a first shot?
