Hi everyone. Unsurprisingly, the other shoe began to drop today with
Logitech laying off a handful of folks within the team, including
myself. I haven't read through very much of this thread but I wanted to
say that I am very pleased to see this effort in finding a way forward
in the post-Logitech world, and I had no doubt this great community
would already be on top of things here. :)

A couple of changes I was thinking of implementing involve removing
MySqueezebox.com support from the ip3k firmware, SqueezePlay, and LMS. I
do not know what Logitech plans to do with MySB but it is just a matter
of time before either they stop funding it, or it breaks with no one to
fix it. Sadly most music services will have to be removed, but Triode's
Spotify plugin shows it might be possible for the community to
reimplement some of them, if they have public documentation.

As for Smart Radio, personally I'd like to see those devices allowed to
become SB Radios if Logitech decides to stop supporting the
uesmartradio.com backend. Unfortunately Logitech controls distribution
of the SR firmware so this will require cooperation from them. I would
recommend not investing any time into supporting Smart Radio.
