[linux-audio-announce] [ANN]Alsaplayer: new python extension module release, new developers, fftscope release and cvs2svn migration

[Dominique Michel]

After the release of the long wanted bugfix Alsaplayer-0.99.77 release last
week, I am very pleased to announce the release of a new exiting python module
for Alsaplayer. 

This module is the work of Austin Bingham, a new active developer in the
Alsaplayer team.

Another developer just joined us, Peter Lemenkov. He is working on some new
input plugins, included a wavpack plugin.

AlsaPlayer is a new type of PCM player. It is heavily multi-threaded and tries
to excercise the ALSA library and driver quite a bit. It has some very
interesting features unique to Linux/Unix players. The goal is to create a
fully pluggable framework for playback of all sorts of media with the focus on
PCM audio data.

Austin Bingham made the initial release (0.3) of the new
alsaplayer python extension module. 
This module has dependencies on the boost and python libraries. It will
probably move to 1.0 status quickly.

A set of python bindings for the alsaplayer libraries. These are written in C++
using boost.python and are intended to provide a minimal level of abstraction
over the C libraries. Higher-level abstractions and functionality can then be
written purely in python.

Fftscope-1.0.3, a nice visualization plugin is now officially released.
