Hi all, Recently there have been discussions on #banshee about getting Banshee to move to libgpod from its current ipod-sharp/podsleuth usage. I am in favour of this, if it ever takes place, since ipod-sharp/podsleuth is beginning to get rather... dated, and doesn't really does seem behind time as there are several popular models of iPods not supported, such as the iPhone/iPod Touch, some Nanos, among others, and it still relies heavily on HAL, which is deprecated. From what I hear, libgpod was not considered at the start of Banshee's iPod support due to it being young/attempting dangerous stuff, but a considerable amount of time has passed since then, so perhaps it would be worth a reevaluation? I'd love to hear input from Aaron and James on this. I understand that it will not be directly implementable currently since libgpod is yet to sprout C# bindings, but I am sure that once the ball starts rolling, it will be done, and that is the purpose of this e-mail. :-D -- Kind regards, Chow Loong Jin
