Hello, I have been very busy during the last two weeks (exams), and unfortunately did not assign new tasks to everyone. We are now enough people so that it should be possible to implement different task in parallel. Much functionality is based on BMediaNode and BBuffer, thus Aleksander Lodwich has been assigned most of the work in this area, since he is designing the new media_server. The following lists provides an overview who is assigned which task, and also lists the new tasks. Then a list follows which lists a overview of tasks, I would like all of you who are working on one of this tasks to send me a small status report and a description of the task (Each one in 1 or 2 lines) so that I can complete it. This list will be used to compile a web page with more information about the media kit team. And please, If I forgot any task, or member send a reply! Also send me a reply to indicate that you have received your assigment. If you have problems with your assignments, or think that you would rather work in a different area, please tell me. We can try to change this then. I would also like to duiscuss general coding questions related to the media kit development on this list.
