I’ve decided to move to Angers France. I will be leaving the United States September 17th. Although I hope to have a point release of 3.5.x out before I leave it will all depend on how much paperwork/packing I have to do before I leave. Once I arrive in France it may be up to a month before I have a steady internet connection so development and communication will be spotty. Rest assured that I will resume work on Ampache as soon as I’m settled in France. If anyone happens to know of open jobs system administration in France please send me an e-mail vollmer AT ampache.org.
The checklist for the first point release of 3.5.x is as follows:
- Fix remaining Browse issues after code re-organization
- Complete Tag support
- Add Catalog Filters
- Transition to new API
- Simplified ACL
This is by no means a complete feature list of 3.5.x, simply what I think I might be able to get done before I leave for France.
In other news Kevin Purdy has been hard at work figuring out the iPhone API and has a working concept of Quickplay implemented on the iPhone. Once he manages to wade through the bureaucracy that is Apple it should be available for download. What does this mean? It would give you a native interface for your Ampache collection strait on your iPhone. Once it’s been completed I will post an update, with pictures!
