I started working on a new responsive skin for Roundcube. Any help appreciated. Especially we lack graphics and design experts, but there will be also a lot of copy/paste/cleanup and other simple tasks.
There's a separate repository so you can send pull requests and discuss issues/features there.

While this is great news, I'm very interested to hear what happened to Roundcube Next, which was supposed to be the responsive skin for Roundcube. There was a crowdfunding at https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/roundcube-next--2 and I backed it. It was funded and over 100,000 USD was raised. The last project update at https://www.indiegogo.com/projects/roundcube-next--2#/updates was already 8 months ago which still promised to deliver. I understand that you might or might not be involved, and that having this crowdfunding campaign might have actually delayed the realization of a mobile skin.
So you starting a responsive skin, is this a separate effort from a Roundcube Next, which might not materialize? I'm glad you started your new effort of course, but I'm a bit disappointed in Roundcube Next. I did not even get the stickers for my laptop :D

I'm not involved in rc-next and I'm going to work on this skin in my free-time. So, this will not interfere (or slow down) rc-next in any way. Note that we're talking about a new skin only. rc-next was supposed to be a complete rewrite of everything. I know Kolab Systems (who was the crowdfunding campain "owner") has some problems, but I also know that the project didn't die and there's a plan to get back to it with even more human-resources, hopefully soon. I'm sure that the new skin effort if successful can also help rc-next.

Thanks! I was not really sure who the 'we' was you spoke about. I'm absolutely sure a responsive skin would be very helpful for Roundcube, and it might be also helpful for RC Next.
Great initiative, I hope you can find some nice people to work with you and that you'll be able to make good progress!
