That'd be the first I've heard of it - rhythmbox is still a fairly decent audio app (even if the album cover plugin has some odd results - it brought up an Elmo cover for The Clash's "London Calling" here, which had me in stitches) and as far as I'm aware still maintained. > If this is true how will this affect Fedora?

Amarok is a KDE app last I checked so it shouldn't affect GNOME at all :-) I have noted in the recent past some effort to bring in Banshee as a default media player - I'm not 100% sure this is wise as while it's very good - I use it day to day - it's not quite as solid as Rhythmbox IMHO and being Mono may not be to everyone's tastes. > I am not a coder so I can not help and while I am not sure if this is > true if it is I would like to see it still maintained. > > Thanks, > Andrew Jamison > IRC: ajamison5579 Michael Fleming (not a GNOME developer, just a longtime user) -- Michael Fleming <mfleming@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx> - (EMail/XMPP/Jabber) WWW: http://www.thatfleminggent.com Fedora / Red Hat Packages: http://www.thatfleminggent.com/rpm-packages Twitter: http://twitter.com/thatfleminggent -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list Guidelines: http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Communicate/MailingListGuidelines
