A Makefile? Following a wise advise from an Happy Chap I decided to (finally) write a Makefile instead of using python distutils. Surprisingly GNU make was way more straightforward for me than using distutils (which I'm still expecting to figure out ... [More] eventually). This Makefile being my first I'm expecting some feed back, corrections and or suggestions to improve it, this is also why I'm not officially integrating it yet into the latest release. You'll find it in the trunk branch only even though it is fully compatible and working with 0.7 branch. The Makefile I tried to follow the GNU standard, the makefile tries therefore to respect PREFIX and DESTDIR conventions. There is no target (yet?) to build roff manuals from xml docbook since I try to always provide updated manual and also because I wanted to avoid build dependencies against xsltproc and docbook xsl stuff. Default installation folders are /usr/local/{bin,share}, please use PREFIX to override. The uninstall target is set as well. Cheers Happy Listening K [Less]

Next months This summer will be calm for MPD_sima, no new release planned until this autumn.I'm focussing on having a good Debian package and eventually get it accepted in official Debian repository . I'll try to have the Arch/AUR package improved ... [More] (read: "I'm looking for Archers willing to work on it "). New features entering next versions are the "album queue" (queueing albums instead of single tracks) and black listing. A proof of concept has been running for a while now, it has proven how pleasant it is to keep albums integrity listening to music, and second, it has also demonstrated the need to have a black list in MPD_sima, which is quite straight forward now that we have the SQLite DB. You are welcome to comment these new features on the forum and/or ask for improvements on the tracker. Donation I've also added MPD_sima on flattr, I believe in this original micropayments system and want to give it a try. Still in closed beta state at the time of writing, but it's easy to join requesting an invitation (online at flattr.com). I do have some invitation to give if someone is curious about it  Of course you're welcome to flattr MPD_sima if you already joined the system: src="http://api.flattr.com/button/button-compact-static-100x17.png" alt="Flattr MPD_sima" title="Flattr MPD_sima" border="0" /> I guess then I should precise how I intend to deal with the money one would donate to MPD_sima projet either via paypal or flattr.I've decided to equally split donation between devs involved in the project and the forge hosting us. Bugs Recently a new bug as been reported, I've been unabled to reproduce it myself. I'd be glad if someone can test and reproduce it. Cheers Happy Listenning k [Less]
