Bug#1025642: RFS: d11amp/0.59-1 [ITP] -- Simple MP3 player



Package: sponsorship-requests
Severity: wishlist

Dear mentors,


So, I have noticed that not much has happened with my package in the
last couple of days...
Which is a shame, because I still think that my project is AWESOME. :)

Again, it is a MP3 player. Yes, you have a lot of them in the packages,
and this one is not that
"Different". It is more of a REIMAGINING of xmms. Afaik, said layer was
a fork from x11amp,
which was the first Linux Version of WinAmp.

It was highly customizable, and a lot of people did that, which you can
see here:https://skins.webamp.org. My player d11amp can handle those,
and thus looks badass-oldskool.


The second point I would like to make about this player is its license
model. It relies on GTK4,
which stand firmly on the ground of LGPL. There are other players, which
are using a different
frontend. And those sometimes have a Semi-Commercial License. (You know
what I mean. ;) )

With d11amp, even the default skin is EXPLICITLY CC-0, so even
screenshots are not a problem.

So, to sum up:


1. Looks cool
2. License model is open source friendly


On top of that: Isn't the whole point of Open Source to give users the
freedom to choose?
Please see d11amp as one more option. I hope you find that it deserves a
place in your
collection one day.
