libgpod is a library meant to abstract access to an iPod content. It provides an easy to use API to retrieve the list of files and playlist stored on an iPod, to modify them and to save them back to the iPod. This code was originally part of gtkpod (www.gtkpod.org). When the iPod content parsing code was made to be self-contained with gtkpod 0.93, we chose to put this code in a separate library so that other project can benefit from it without duplicating code. If you decide to make improvements, like support for cover art or photos please contact us so we can work together. Just drop a mail to Gtkpod-devel@lists.sourceforge.net (you may ask to be CC in the answer). ---------------------------------------------------------------------- For the time being please always use the current version in CVS. See http://sourceforge.net/cvs/?group_id=67873 for information on how to access the CVS server. The module to download is called 'libgpod'. The package released on sourceforge is simply there to raise awareness and hopefully have some package maintainers pick up the library. ----------------------------------------------------------------------
