Re: [Banshee-List] Banshee in Google Summer of Code

There have been a few mails about the potential for hacking on Banshee
in the Google Summer of Code, 2007.

I am planning on applying for a GSoC application outside of GNOME or
Mono within the next day or two. If the application is not accepted, I
can put a project under the Mono GSoC.

Myself and Gabriel Burt will be mentors. My only reservation is that I'm
not entirely sure of any good ideas for GSoc projects. So, now is the
time to reply (quickly!) with ideas. I know this is rather late, and my
apologies for that.

My feeling is that there is a *lot* of smaller things to do in Banshee:
things that don't necessarily constitute an entire summer of work, so
I'm thinking we can group a number of features, etc. together into
projects.

Anyway, for now, I'd be interested in just any kind of ideas for
potential Banshee GSoC projects, but again, reply quickly!

One feature i would love to have is support  for audiobooks, and that you could sync the audiobooks in Banshee with your iPod or your favorite dap.

Support for Audiobooks would mean making banshee recognise that the audio file is a audiobook (maybe making sure that all files with the genre audiobook are sorted into audiobooks or doing as apple and supporting acb and its bookmarks).
