Will do. It will be something similar to my blog post (with a bit of more technical details suited to Amarok devs), is it OK? > Once GSoC will be started - which is in a week - we expect a weekly > update about your progression by mail as well as the regular blog > entry. Better get used to it now :) Yes, I'm prepared to that, I will post a blog entry by the end of each week. Again, the mail to amarok-devel could be slightly more detailed version of the blog post if this is OK. I plan to include points of what has been achieved, what problems I have encountered and what is planned for the next week. Some organizational things: 1. All commits I make will be publicly visible on [1] in a git branch. I will however rebase the branches on top of the Amarok master rather frequently to make my development move convenient. 2. My GSoC project has 2 parts (synchronization within Amarok; synchronization with Last.fm). The first one will be useful by itself and I would prefer merging it to Amarok master as soon as it becomes ready and agreed upon by other devs (somewhere around mid-term evaluation) - do you think it is okay? 3. I will for sure have to make fixes, clean-ups and smaller refactorings of rather unrelated Amarok code. This work should be considered a part of my GSoC project, but I would prefer pushing these fixes directly to Amarok master branch (as I'm used now) - does it sound okay from the GSoC point of view? [1] http://quickgit.kde.org/?p=clones%2Famarok%2Flaitl%2Famarok.git&a=summary Concerning my current plans, I think I'll focus on some of the remaining Amarok bugs to be solved before 2.6 beta during this week and of course transition to my GSoC project by the start of the GSoC coding period. P.S.: I didn't know whether I should CC amrok-devel in this mail, feel-free to resend it to the list.
