Greetings people, I should start with saying that my life is getting increasingly busy and my dedication to the project is as a consequence not as great as last year. However, I am still developing and trying to move it forward but other developers, regardless of experience, are essential. Please do not feel afraid to contact Christophe (teuf), Jorg, Todd (tmz) or I for any help in getting into the code. Trust me, a collaborative development effort is far healthier and industrious than just me hacking on a whim. This does not in any way ignore other members of the community who are already contributing in other ways. Its just my concern is stagnation of development due to my personal circumstances over the next year or two. Anyway... If anyone would like to contribute ideas, bugs, feature requests for a new todo list for the next version of gtkpod then please start posting things on http://gtkpod.org/bugs. Ideas for particular plugins would be useful too - maybe porting some banshee plugins might be helpful ... ? I have already started to update gtkpod to use anjuta 2.96+ since this is the least available in fedora 15 (due out in the next couple of months). This update uses gtk3, which therefore requires a gtkpod migration (which I am in the middle of!). Other distros like Ubuntu Natty are not yet going to gtk3 so I guess they are not taking the latest anjuta yet either, which means they will probably be updating to gtkpod 2.0.0 (fedora 15 cannot since although it has a gtk2 library still, it lacks an anjuta 2.32). Therefore, the gtk3 upgrade of gtkpod will probably be a sister release for a while until all distros have eventually transitioned to gtk3. Other than that, the bug to fix embedded artwork is sitting in my git repo and needs further tweaking (requires conversion of gtkpod's local repositories to full directories). I think that is enough for now. Any thoughts do let me know. Cheers PGR (a.k.a. phantomjinx) -- I know exactly who reads the papers ...
