I'm just curious, does anyone know why nobody was selected for this project for GSOC? Even without the codec capabilities, it seemed like a very useful worthwile project, so I'm just curious why it wasn't selected? On another note, for at least the PCM audio portions, if someone would want to

Hi Justin, while I'm not a Mono or Banshee developer, so I do not know details about what's in store for Mono.Media. However, I am very interested in this project and the potential impact it will have on projects like OpenTK and the Tao framework. To my mind, the codec / backend separation is
