This is a good question, and seeking a good answer is one of the creative duties of the student as well ;) As for me, I think Amarok already has a very good web services framework, so any Tomahawk integration project should definitely focus on the "social music" aspect rather than the various resolvers. Namely, we'd like to be able to stream from a collection on another user's Amarok or Tomahawk instance. Ideally I'd like to see a "my buddies" GUI element with a contact list and a way to query and stream from my friends' collections. On the other hand, if Tomahawk already provides a library for that, then the GSoC project could be to integrate that library. Consider this bit of research as a requirement for qualification :) Cheers, -- Teo _______________________________________________ Amarok-devel mailing list Amarok-devel@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/amarok-devel
