"Our sister project XMMS2 has now reached Developer Release 1. The
target audience for this release is developers, the player is NOT yet
ready for public consumption or for replacing XMMS1, RythmBox, AmaroK or
MPD. This simply means that the codebase is very nice and developers are
encouraged to help creating plugins and clients that will make XMMS2 the
de facto standard for music playing, like XMMS1 has been for almost a
decade. At this point there are no mature and stable GUI clients, but
this preview is released in the hope that the development of interfaces
will accelerate. Read more about the XMMS2 project on
http://wiki.xmms2.xmms.se.
This does not imply the end of XMMS1, we will continue to work on XMMS1
and are still very much interested in more developers and patches.
Please drop by any of the channels we occupy on irc.freenode.net either
#xmms or #xmms2.
Please note that XMMS and XMMS2 are two seperate projects and thus, do
not report xmms2 bugs on the xmms bugzilla, and don't report xmms bugs
on the xmms2 mantis :) "
Plus... XMMS was forked to Beep Media Player, which morphed to BMPx and
forked to Audacious.
