Hi Nachiket,

I'm sorry to say that I haven't heard from Kivy yet this year, so I 
don't know if they're intending to participate, but I'm currently 
assuming they don't intend to participate with us.

You should contact them directly!  Their contact information can be 
found here: https://kivy.org/docs/contact.html
