@cardiff-blues: sorry for the technical-dutch of this thread, but its mainly centered around development. I believe that the Rapier website has a how-to for how to use the application. However, this has not been updated for the N900 since Rapier is still undergoing testing for the N900/Maemo 5.

@Zibeb: yea, being that this is only a port,, the UI just won't see the polish that many other Maemo 5 apps have. Once its ported and the author/lead developer is satisfied, it will pretty much be retired to a maintenance mode (unless there are others who'd like to tweak and update it).

Hence the request starting this thread to make something that is more befitting Maemo 5 and beyond. Things like hover mode, better finger-usability, and text support will be a lot better becaus eof the lessons learned from Rapier. We've gained a ton from Pamado's work, and so we'd like to leverage those lessons as much as possible so that Katana (and indirectly any ported application) can be developed and used effectively. Thanks for your feedback though, you give lots of solid items to pay attention to for Katana (personally am keeping notes for better process wireframes to be built).
