I've made a pre-release of GNUMP3d v3.0, which I'd appreciate feedback on.
I think it contains all the patches and fixes it should. Get it
from either CVS or the temporary download location:

I'm torn on what to do with windows support. I could rip it all out,
or leave it untested and unsupported. Either works for me as I can no
longer test it.
As people have no doubt noticed I've not touched the code in a long
time now, and I think that this release will be the last I make.
Whether it is the last ever release is a different matter. Several
people have made good patches and fixes and I'm prepared to allow
a *group* of volunteers to take it over after this release if they
wish to make themselves known.
I don't want to rule anybody out - since almost anybody is better
than nobody at all - but I'd trust people who have previously submitted
patches a lot more than any random "unknowns"...
My interest in streaming MP3s has partly waned over the past year
or two - since I work from home and don't have that "office-wide-jukebox"
thing happening, and partly the goals of this software no longer align
with what I want myself.
Nowadays I use (unreleased) software which is superficially related
to GNUMP3d, but stores all its data in a database and allows ratings,
etc.
The updated plugin code of this release is inspired by that, and also
by the "toy" release I did here:

Hmm this mail ended up with me announcing my resignation, rather than
just pointing to the code and asking for tests. I'll still be around
at least for a month or two after the release.
So .. back to the topic. Theres a pre-release. Its available.
Testing is good.
Umm thanks.
Steve
