Philippe keeps it up to date - we are quite close to finishing it but a few bits
are still missing.

I would prefer to finish 2.8 as soon as possible. Now that Guadec is over it
should not take too long.

Right, Starling is a good candidate for Maemo - another one would be
gpe-filemanager for which there is a patch available that add Maemo support.
Maybe we can apply this upstream if it does not break too much.
