The Entertainer Project (www.entertainer-project.com) is going to be releasing version 0.1 in two weeks time on the 14th June.

To test it prior to release (you’ll need bzr) get a console up and type in the following:

bzr branch lp:entertainer

Development website is over on launchpad (https://launchpad.net/entertainer/)

I’ve just joined the Entertainer Project  over on Launchpad.

From the website:

“Entertainer aims to be a simple and easy-to-use media center solution for Gnome and XFce desktop environments. Entertainer is written completely in Python using object-oriented programming paradigm. It uses GStreamer multimedia framework for multimedia playback. User Interface is implemented with Clutter UI-library, which allows sleek OpenGL animated user interfaces. Entertainer also uses other great projects like SQLite, pyIMDBb and iNotify.

The ultimate goal of the project is to create the best media center solution available for any platform. This means that Entertainer should be the best looking, most easy to use and most feature filled media center solution available. Not the easiest goal to achieve. It’s a long way, but we have a good start here!”

My first job is to add opml import capability to the rss feed reader and allow the option to sync with liferea. I’ll be checking out any bugs relating to this as well.
