Imslp for android - now opensource!

Dear all
We decided to open-source ImslpDroid and the code is available at
https://github.com/nicolamontecchio/imslpdroid
We also removed advertising from the app distributed on the market.
If you are interested in keeping the project alive, please fork the project and contribute your changes.
Even though we won't be able to dedicate much time to coding, we will be updating the market app on our account.
Right now we feel that the main drawback is that the application accesses the imslp web site and parses the html pages, instead of using the imslp API. In a few cases the application crashes when it encounters unexpected html formatting; using the API would render the app much faster in any case.
You are welcome to reply to this thread with additional ideas for improvement.
Cheers,
Nicola
