My thought involves starting from scratch. Say we use Cordova (i can't speak to the pros and cons of Cordova vs. Kivy in terms of things like functionality provided, possible barriers to contribution etc.). Cordova takes care of a certain amount of the (semi-)boilerplate code needed for each platform; and of the remainder of the code, the core functionality would need to get reimplemented in HTML/CSS/JavaScript, with 'shims' being created between this code and the surrounding platform-specific code. Consequently, i think there would likely be very little use of most of the code in either current MobileOrg project. Alexis.
