Where Has All the Memory Gone

Gentoo and Xine dev (and part-time "Amarok Helper") Diego wrote an interesting blog about memory usage. Or, at least interesting to folks like me who somewhat regret never having had a operating systems class.

Dragon Player 2.0 beta1 released

As promised, Dragon Player 2.0 beta1 has been released.

Bug reports and feedback appreciated. Especially on the volume slider, I'm not sure I like having the extra toolbar button.

There's a few more items on the TODO list (mainly double checking stuff works) and then a 2.0 final release can be made.
