Yesterday, we had our first meeting with Marco Bernasocchi, who just started his Google Summer of Code project. The project goals are:

• porting QGIS to the Android platform
• adapt the QGIS GUI for tablet computers
• write a driver for the built-in GPS
• create a QGIS “mini” application for mobile phones

Marco Hugentobler is mentoring the project and updated information will be available on a QGIS Wiki page. We wish Marco good luck and are looking forward to a portable QGIS this year!
