Hi. So, I checked out libvorbis and it seemed pretty OK, but the cmdline subdir didn't compile. I made changes to Makefile.in and added a function or two (does "fill_buffer" live anywhere? I couldn't find it) and eventually got a build that didn't do much. Anyways, I guess I want real CVS access so I can check the changes in, and I'd like to slap the cmdline thing around a bit more to see it actually become useful (#if 0 suggests that the code isn't ready for prime time). Whose ass do I kiss to get a real CVS account? ~ESP P.S. I love the idea of vorbis and I want to work real hard on it. --- >8 ---- List archives: http://www.xiph.org/archives/ Ogg project homepage: http://www.xiph.org/ogg/

I've been lame. I won't be upset if someone beats me to getting it ready. (You're right. That code is still in "initial development", and not close to being ready for prime time.) I've been working on reusing some of the guts of the old Ogg player, since a bunch of the code is similar. Monty's the one who parcels out cvs commit access, but until that happens, if a hunk of working player code were to fall into my lap, I'd almost certainly commit it. =) -wrong mike --- >8 ---- List archives: http://www.xiph.org/archives/ Ogg project homepage: http://www.xiph.org/ogg/

(Hi!) R/W CVS access implies coordination and accountability; I'm happy to give it out so long as that's understood. Mike Whitson, despite not having alot of time to work on the code, understands where the player is going as well as I do (if not better) and has access to to large chunks of code being recycled into the new player from a previous incarnation of Ogg. They're not in CVS yet and getting them there is the greatest priority in the player. Perhaps a temporary commit of the code in question is a good idea until it's all reassembled. In any case, player work should coordinate with Mike for the time being (unless he hands that over) even if he's not doing any actual coding. That doesn't mean that you can't have r/w access, just be sure you know where things are going. If Mike is too busy to respond, I'll field coordination issues. It's important to avoid committing changes that clobber another's work; folks will just spend time trying to win commit races. Libvorbis changes should be discussed with me. There's less work to be done here than in the player and the API parts that exist should build and run. As a summary, there's still alot of wholesale coding to be done; we're not in an 'iterate and tweak' phase yet. If you still want r/w access, send a note and it shall be done. Keep the list informed as to ongoing work, however. (This wasn't really directed toward ESP but the list in general so that folks know my take on CVS access.
