[guardian-dev] Ocat for Android

[arrase]

I was talking with Bernhard R. Fischer and i'm don't think than "its no
longer maintained", maybe the development was a bit stopped but when i
found a bug in android 7 Bernhard fixes it and a new release is comming in
the next days.

I will fix the android app today.

I talked to him today and the project is still alive.
