Anyone interested in an ebook sharing app?

I have an idea of making an (open-source) ebook sharing app on the nook to make it easier for people to get to know each other and can trade e-books on a person to person manner, for example the books that have 'lend me' features or free classics or anything that is not covered by DRM and isn't illegal to share.

But to do it I think we'll have to have an initial momentum which I'm unsure we do actually have, so just before I begin on the project, I would like to hear what do you think about the idea.

It wouldn't take very long for me to implement the idea, but I just want to see if many of you have a soft-rooted nook, or are willing to try...

I'd be interested. It sounds like a good idea. Are you able to build it so that it integrates into the existing stock UI?
