Dragon Player 2.0 Alpha 1 released

First off, I've graduated Truman State University with a Computer Science major. Hooray! It's been a good 4.5 years, I would do it again. 
So I've decided to rename Codeine/Video Player to Dragon Player. Its named in honor of KDE's mascot Konqui of course. I've always been a fan, I requested and received a Konqui shirt back when I was in 11th grade for my birthday (which is 3 or 4 years before I started coding for KDE).
I've also gone ahead and made a release, Dragon Player 2.0 Alpha 1. I hope to generate some feedback and interest from KDE4 distributions (I believe Mandriva is already packaging it from SVN). There's still some rough edges and it doesn't have some features I plan on adding in the final form, but its pretty much there. The most notable part missing is the KPart, I do plan on working on that pretty soon.
Dragon Player doesn't have a web page yet, I'm working on that too.
