[Building Sakai] [sakai-mobile] Any Sakai's native app efforts out there?

[Sila Kayo]

Hi Mariano and all,
We are a small team from Finland (the land of Nokia) and are working on a
Sakai multi-platform native app (Android, iOs, WP8, BB10).
Our solution is not based on Keitai, we use a custom RPC protocol that
allow us to do 2-way communication between the Sakai server and our mobile
client.

The apps supports some features like push notifications and server-side
signalling (needed for tools like Chat and Video Conferencing), And those
can't be implemented using Keitai alone.

We are planning to share a high-level architecture of our solution with the
Sakai community in the near future. In the mean time, here a presentation
that we made during EuroSakai 2011

Our app can work with any Sakai 2.7+ version and we are planning to offer
our services to any Sakai adopter who is looking for native mobile access.

Our website is coming soon but you can already follow our progress on this

BR,
Sila
