Hello Stefan, As someone who has been in your situation many times (I look after more orphans than an animal shelter) you do need to think about the longer term. I took over psmisc in 2000, for example.
I saw some suggested you make the library a basic shim to the currently developed one and that's probably a good compromise if it doesn't look like too much work. The ideal would be for programs to use a supported library. I would say that the library change would be about the same effort as the command-line one but there's more ongoing support. It's the ongoing work that you need to consider. Also I wonder how many of the other programs know the id3 library state. I was actually looking for an id3 tagger for a program of mine and wasn't aware. - Craig -- Craig Small VK2XLZ http://www.enc.com.au/ csmall at : enc.com.au Debian GNU/Linux http://www.debian.org/ csmall at : debian.org GPG fingerprint: 1C1B D893 1418 2AF4 45EE 95CB C76C E5AC 12CA DFA5 -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [email protected] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
