Quoting Mike Anderson <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
BTW, I don't want to come across as a complainer (I really love this
product, I'm just indulging my fantasies for it).
But as a fan of the product, I'd really love to see the company
prosper.
well, I'm in total agreement with you there. I'm a big fan too. Having met
many of them, I'm an even bigger fan. I also know that they are capable
people. I personally find it a bit insulting to suggest that they don't know
what they are doing.
There are pros and cons of joining the windows-only or mac-only camps. There
are pros and cons of sticking with cross-platform and open-source. It seems
clear that SD is committed to both, and I respect that.
You want a sexier UI, I can understand that. It is recognised as a
weak point,
and is part of the roadmap for 6.5. I imagine copying iTunes would border on
legal problems. Slimserver is not (at least to my knowledge) intended to be a
portal (like iTunes) but a multi-platform common access for managing the
hardware. All the other bells and whistles (java player, web plugins) are a
bonus.
If you take a look at http://bugs.slimdevices.com, you will see some UI
enhancements already entered (and many already implemented if you look at
resolved ones). Taking part in improving that would be great. The more, the
merrier. I would hope that it can stay away from the topic of how to actually
run the business.
