I'd never have known that from the distribution of your comments. Your winamp issue gets quite a lot of pleading details, and the open source argument one sentence. To me it sounds like you've failed to do your research and are backpedaling for help. But all is not lost. Since the module you're concerned with hasn't changed significantly since v1.5?, you should be able to download the 1.77f source and make it work with winamp. Send me your changes and I'll build it into the current tree.

Now, with all due respect no-one would like to open source MediaEngine more than I would. Unfortunately (or fortunately, depending on your perspective) this is a joint venture and there are other parties involved so it's not just that cut-and-dried.

I just noticed this thread. I would like to contribute to the development efforts of MediaEngine. I'm a .Net developer myself but vb6 is what I started with and still have to deal with it due to our "classic" code still in existence. Let me know as I could possibly contribute some weekend time to this project...getting a bit bored with the phpBB community people.

I have developed software in many different languages all around the world. VB is at the top of my list. I would be very happy to help develop in the spare time I can spare.

I love the philosophy you use: Software for free, give me some cash if you like it.

I downloaded ME the other day and was well impressed to the dizzy heights of donating! It does just work, and it does everything you need, where you need it.

Upgrade it??? To where and why? Your call, I would be happy to help, drop me an email.

Don't expect a reply...I never received one.

I think dev for MediaEngine has died...again...

Carcomp is doing other things. He probably will develop ME in the future, but who knows when

Carcomp is working now. Luckily we have internet at work so I can checkup on things. I been thinking about working with phat_b on making mediaengine open source. I wouldn't want it to turn into a roadrunner clone though. Any thoughts?
