I can file bug reports and stalk bug reports, but I cannot package or code, otherwise I'd help. I imagine if there were just one release at this point, built on Qt5, it could last a long time. It's not a program you'd have to worry about security-wise. It doesn't open files, just reads audio streams, not directly hooked to internet, does not manage passwords, etc. It looks as if it may support Wayland, too, or at least indirectly. -- Jonathan Joseph Chiarella jonathan.chiarella@gmail.com PGP Fingerprint: 8B54 67AE 714B 8A5B D479 F578 6AAB 963C 0402 061A
