Peter,
Sorry for not reading your post properly, yes you write that Spec
offers the option to write adapters for other back-ends.
So I think the issue is to try to come up with an example which uses
some other adapters,
e.g.
XHTML (--> phonegap?)
Kivy
not necessarily complete, but complete enough to do a simple example
but which has an area of use (slide show, instruction, help system,
tutorial, picture book)
