Release:DR2.1

This is a maintenance release, fixing bugs found in Release:DR2.

Release notes

Good news everyone! The XMMS2 Team is releasing a bugfix release of the current Developer Release (DR2) called DR2.1. This corrects some annoyances found by the community, the most prominent of those being an ID3v2.3 parsing error.

This release is compatible with DR2 and will not break the plugin API, medialib or client communication (we think).

We are now focusing on the last planned DR (DR3). Starting with the release of DR2.1, we now have two main trees - the devel tree, where more radical changes take place, and the stable tree. The planned features and changes for DR3 are tracked on our Mantis bug tracker under under Bug 317. Your feedback is important for DR3 since we are aiming to stabilise the API after this.

Source is available at sourceforge as usual.

Now have a nice day!
