Intention to package x11amp



This is my formal announcement of intention to package x11amp, a
graphical .mp3 player for X.

x11amp is a clone of WinAMP. It's free to redistribute, but no
source is available, so it's going into non-free/sound.

Its home page is: http://www.x11amp.bz.nu/

One question: x11amp uses the real-time functions of Linux (and sounds
much better) if it's installed suid-root, but there are unknown holes
that this opens up. Should I use suidmanager and make it suid?
