this should probably read IceCast and ShoutCast :-)

you might want to consider maintaining it under the multimedia-team
umbrella (it seems like a perfect fit :-), but of course it's up to you)

  Description : minimalist audio encoder for generating live streams

GlassCoder is a minimalist audio encoder for IceCase and Soutcase
streaming servers as well as HTTP Live Streaming (HLS). It supports
the following audio sources:

Advanced Linux Sound Architecture (ALSA)
File Streaming (FILE)
JACK Audio Connection Kit (JACK)

The base GlassCoder streamer component utilizes no configuration files or
GUI interface whatsoever; with the 'user interface' consisting entirely of
the command-line invocation.  As such, it is well suited for use cases where
the encoder is completely driven by an external system or script.

The following audio codecs are supported:

MPEG-1/1.5 Layer 3 ('MP3')
Ogg Opus
Ogg Vorbis

Also included is GlassGui, a graphical point-and-click interface that can
be used to drive GlassCoder or generate command-line invocations that
can be copy/pasted to other systems

It will be maintained under the Debian group on salsa
