UPDATE

According to this Issue Cloudfuji has disbanded.

In speaking with @kevzettler and @sgrove both @jrgifford and I (@fusion94) are going to attempt to maintain it.

As such all new development will be happening in this repository and we will be utilizing this Issue tracker moving forward.

That's not a question, it's an order! Or more of a friendly offer, really. Kandan is a fully open-source app, so dive in and start adding features, fixing bugs (what bugs?), and cleaning up the code.
