Thanks for bringing it up. I had a bit of time to look into it, and it looks 
like audex is in a better state and it has seen some activity from Heiko in 
the last few months which kind of de facto makes him maintainer. ;-)

Since I'd rather we have one project with a team size > 1 that two with a team 
size of 1, I'll retract my previous offer of reviving kaudiocreator and turn 
my attention to audex instead. Hopefully we can get it out of playground and 
into KDE Applications.

Regards.

I'd like it to be part of KDE Applications. Unlike Zanshin I'd rather have
this one tied to the Applications release cycle. That being said, it's been
eons since I had anything in the regular applications collection. Could
someone refresh me on what it entails to "make release"? Back in the day it
was fairly transparent, if that's still so low on work I can easily say
yes...
if not I'll have to evaluate.


Great, please work with Albert or whoever to get it into the KDE Applications 
bundle.


One of the first issues I see is the screenshot needs updating, this can be 
done here

https://cgit.kde.org/websites/product-screenshots.git/tree/README.md
You may also want to update the metadata in the appstream .xml file, currently 
it generates this:

http://apps.kde.org.uk/applications/unmaintained/org.kde.kaudiocreator

Did you guys have a look at audex?
Last time I looked at both audex and kaudiocreator, I found the former to be in 
a much better state.
That's also why I put in some effort to port it to kf5 (at the time neither of 
the two was ported).


Right now the main issue with audex is that the cover fetching doesn't work 
(since Google removed a related API), but apart from that it works very well.


Of course, if you – for whatever reason – prefer kaudiocreator, feel free to 
continue with that one.

Just wanted to point out that audex exists as well. ;)

Cheers,
Bernd

I've not heard of audex.  It doesn't have appstream metadata and it's still
in playground so it doesn't feature on my radar.

Not yet, but definitely something I want to tackle soon-ish.

I don't want to block on this, but given it seems relatively likely the 
"community" would be doing maintaince on this if it joins KDE Applications, I'd 
really welcome if this wouldn't depend on kdelibs4support.

Has anyone attempted to port away from it?

If it's a part of KDE Applications, the apps release team will take care 
of that for you. :)


Sounds good, let's get kaudiocreator added to the bundle.

Just done now.

I'd like it to be part of KDE Applications. Unlike Zanshin I'd rather have 
this one tied to the Applications release cycle. That being said, it's been

someone refresh me on what it entails to "make release"? Back in the day it

In fact I have one local commit which I forgot to push... from Dec 2017. I 
wanted to brush it up a bit and have it released again. Yes, I buy CDs and rip 
them to mp3 or flac. Call me old school.

I'd like to propose moving kaudiocreator to unmaintained

No commits since Mar 8 22:11:33 2017

No releases in KF5 time

Obsolete technology
