Hello everyone!

I am planing to implement a sensor api, including accelerometer/magnetometer and gyroscope. Currently i do not have any apple devices of my own so i might have troubles with the ios platform (testing and tuning helper functions).  
I have checked both android and ios apis and they look quite similar.

Is it possible to contribute SDL with single platform implementation?

Thank you!
