Jon - Yes, that is the plan. We will get the core to the point where it is reasonably full-featured. Then start pulling over as much code as possible from LMMS (Most of the GUI, Plugins, higher-level features like LFO, Envelope, etc..) I am expecting the editors to be replaced with the QGraphicsView replacements I started over a year ago. Also, Unison's format for saved projects will be different, but an import-filter will exist for LMMS files.
This is all my plan though, I don't know how others may feel :) Paul On Mon, Aug 2, 2010 at 12:43 AM, Jonathan Aquilina <[email protected]> wrote: > will the current lmms be migrated to the unison core eventually pgib? > > On Mon, Aug 2, 2010 at 4:12 AM, Paul Giblock <[email protected]> wrote: >> >> I definitely agree.
