Hi, I would like to introduce myself to this list, I'm Riccardo Iaconelli, a KDE developer who this year happens to be a GSoC student who will work on Amarok.
As you might or might not know, know, I will work on the context view and on sexying up Amarok's UI. I've started my GSoC coding activity now to compensate for the fact that I might need some weeks off to concentrate on exams, in June-July. This week I've been working on gathering some initial information on the technologies I'll be using (which means: deciding what to do about libplasma) and preparing some drawings about what the new context view will look like. The outcome of the discussion with Teo and notmart is to use a standard QML view for the Context View, and Plasma's dataengines for data gathering, in order to: - reuse much of the existing code - be able to concentrate also on the polishedness of the interface, and not end up with a half-baked UI This is mostly it for these few days, but mockups and drawings will soon follow. Bye, -Riccardo _______________________________________________ Amarok-devel mailing list Amarok-devel@kde.org https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/amarok-devel
