Merge-hell is certainly something that should be avoided. The plan is to work 
on the library code for now, and as RJ said, it shouldn't cause problems. Any 
other refactoring would be another task.

Ps. This is completely offtopic, but I think I managed to convert someone from 
Serato to Mixxx ;-). He was asking on a finnish clubbing forum whether to stay 
using Serato or to go with the good-old vinyl instead. I introduced Mixxx to 
him, and told him that there's no need to choose between digital and vinyl. He 
said Mixxx looks "very promising, and it's even free". He also appreciated FLAC 
support.
