Hi,
A while back I posted an announcement of my grand plans for Ogg Frog, a
GPL audio package. Twice now I've announced planned ship dates on the
website, only to miss them because of such life events as career changes
and moving cross-country.
I've started working on it again after a hiatus of several months, but
this time won't pre-announce any more ship dates. Instead, I'll be
posting regular progress reports in my new weblog:
http://www.oggfrog.com/blog/
In my first blog entry I discuss the addition of FLAC support to Ogg
Frog. Next I'll be working on using embedded cuesheets to access
individual tracks of a whole-CD backup.
I expect I'll post a new blog entry about once a week. Next weekend
I'll also add an RSS feed.
Ogg Frog 1.0 will be a player, decoder and cuesheet splitter, and will
support Mac OS X, Windows, BeOS/Haiku and various Linux and BSD flavors.
1.1 will add ripping and encoding and (hopefully) the Classic Mac OS,
while 1.2 will add support for burning.
However, unlike most Free/Open Source Software projects, I'm not going
to release anything until 1.0 is feature-complete and completely stable
to the best of my ability to test it. I don't feel that the Open Source
Mantra of "Release Early, Release Often" would serve the need of the
young, technically naive users that are my target market.
TTFN!
