Thanks for announcing your library. Rhythmbox plugins are generally
written by people who need them, so in that case that would be
MiniDiscs owners. For what it's worth, writing a plugin for a new
media player shouldn't be too hard using existing plugins as a basis,
and people on the list can help, so if anyone want to give it a try...
:) I don't think there are many Rhythmbox hackers owning a mini-disc
though :-/

Cheers,

Christophe
