I installed 6.1b2, and the ExBrowse2 skin works as advertised, and
allows me to click and drag playlist items around (thanks again, Ben),
and looks very nice as well... but I'm also running into a problem -
periodically, the skin declares that it lost connection, and has to
re-initialize and reload, which can be a significant delay.

Apparently, this skin requires a constant connection to the SlimServer,
so I'm wondering if lost connections implies network issues (I'm
browsing from a wireless laptop) or performance issues on the
SlimServer computer.  I'm leaning towards server performance issues,
since I only have 256 MB RAM on my SlimServer box (which was fine for
5.4, but I have a feeling that the version 6 tree might be a bit more
demanding), and I've seen the lost connection while browsing from the
SlimServer box itself at least once.

Quick note for any that want to try out this skin (or any other) on a
trial basis before defaulting to it - you can simply append the name of
the skin to the URL used to access your Slimserver... for example:

http://localhost:9000/ExBrowse2

... or:

http://192.168.1.1:9000/ExBrowse2

Thanks,
Tim
