If your code was in C or C++ I'd be happy to collaborate with you, but it isn't.

I've got many 10's of GB's of ebooks so I'm already into ebook library management. I agree, you want some for sure.

But I think the mountable filesystem will make it easier for people to write a variety of library management systems using their familiar development API's.

Imagine how much easier your Python coding would have been if you could have just read/written files using the standard Python API's. Maybe at some point you'll rip out the USB protocol support and just hop on board the mountable filesystem bus with your project. You'll be free to focus on the library management code and let someone else sweat the USB details as Sony versions the device.
