The Android app for JYLY (or at least an early-but-somewhat-functional) alpha build for it is finished! But also for you with iPhones or Windows Phones or whatever, take a look at the bottom of this post...
Standard warnings first. I cannot guarantee that this application doesn't mess up your device. I am using it, like I'm using my previous applications and no problems have emerged so far (heck, I should know what it does and I know that it shouldn't mess up anything), but I cannot guarantee anything for your devices. You install it - you take the risk. You mess up your phone with JYLY - your fault. You have been warned.
Now, you need to allow your device to install applications from unknown sources. This is due to the fact that JYLY is distributed and installed via downloadable .apk file. Minimum android version required is 2.3.3.
You can download the .apk for the current build from here
I uploaded a video on youtube for demonstrating the app functionalities.
The version in the video is 0.2.0, current version being 0.2.1. One button was added (WIPE DATA in stats). The button will erase your history in JYLY, so you don't have to wipe app data in application manager.
Now, as an addition I tested the web-app capabilities of JYLY. For those not using Android devices, there's an online browser-based app available at http://jyly.altervista.org/ that should work properly. The functionalities are pretty much the same as with the Android app, with few exeptions - web app needs internet connection and you probably want to prevent your screen auto rotate and lock it to portrait (the app is opimized for portrait operation. it should work just as well with horizontal screen or desktop browser but may look ugly). The history is saved with the web app too, only instead of the JYLY's own data storage, your browser's one.
Happy putting folks!

I'm pronouncing it jaɪˈlaɪˈ. Don't know if that's right or not. Maybe Finnish putting is better for us Americans :/
Long time without updates. Finally I managed to dig the source code up and actually do something with it. Quick look at the jyly.altervista.org dashboard shows that the average visitor count on the page is somewhere around 40 per day! I cannot get any statistics for the android app, but the website alone makes this kind of "Worth it!" experience. Thank you all for the interest! Now, the update:
I've been getting request about adding a separate database for a putting style X or environment Y. Well, I kind of did it the "You decide" -route and added another standard bracket, called Normal 2, which can be used to log your uphill putts, straddle putts or whatever you need to log outside of your regular practise. I just uploaded the version 0.4.0 to the dropbox. The testing for it has been quite minimal, however. The new mechanics worked well on the development platform, and I did an installation test to verify that indeed your old rounds will be saved - at least for me they did.
So far only the Android application has the update (go and install!), but I'll try to get the jyly.altervista.org updated as well within one hour or so.
For the future I've planned a graph overhaul. I'll try to make the graph pannable, so that large number of rounds can still be tapped open with ease. Don't know if the approach I used on the distance measurement app works, but that's at least a start.

Keep putting!
Just got my highest score of 607 pts a couple days ago. It was getting kind of dark midway through but I seemed to be throwing more into the basket. Either it made me focus and concentrate more or I should wear a blindfold while putting. Also just purchased a towch which I plan on attaching to my belt loop so I won't have to bend down for the next disc. Yes, I'm lazy. Tried holding the discs in my other hand but I prefer not to so we'll see how the towch works out. Anyone else use one for this purpose?
I usually end up putting a bench or stool or something next to where I'm throwing. I think having the discs swinging from my belt would probably annoy me.
