That term seems to have a long history of discussion, and is indeed
ridiculous (as many of the Winamp genres).
One question, though: How yould you suggest to handle music that is
already tagged with genre ID 133?
hello easytag developers,
please remove the genre "N****punk" from the genre list of your
software. as that word is a pejorative and insulting term for black
people in german.
please see the first section of
https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neger
which states
"Neger gilt heute allgemein als Schimpfwort und als abwertende,
rassistische Bezeichnung für schwarze Menschen."
which means in english:
"Negro today is widely recognized as an insult and as a derogatory and
racist term for black people."
this at least contradicts the opensource definition of the Open Source
Initiative (http://opensource.org/osd).
thank you,
gabriel
