What Do You Need?

[skurk]

Demo coding is always fun, but can sometimes be monotonous.  To get some variety, I want a project to fiddle with a little now and then.  No promises about completion, but the goal is an open-source, free product for all classic Amigas.

The only question is: What should I make?  What do you miss on the miggy?

I've been thinking about writing a BitTorrent or DC++ client, but I don't know how many will need it.  Good alternatives probably already exist.

It must be a reasonable project, not porting Firefox or writing a kickstart replacement.

If you have any ideas, let me know :-)

 A nice bittorent client with a user friendly gui for classic Amiga's would be on the top of my wishlist  :-)

And decoders for .ape, .flac and .shn lossless audio files

I've been thinking about writing a BitTorrent or DC++ client, but I don't know how many will need it.

 Since you mention it, we have enough bitorrent clients but there are no DC++ clients for AOS/AOS4/MOS. So, making one is definitely a good idea. Or perhaps an EMule client for AOS.. We lack this one too.

How about a decompiler?

WMV player (or converter to mpg) for Classic

PPC (PUP) ANIM player

MakeCD drivers for Atapi/IDE DVD-RW (I don't think this is being developed any more, and it NEEDS this functionality)

WMV player (or converter to mpg) for Classic

 Iirc, Frogger can play WMV files, except of the latest WMV3 codec. But i don't think that classic Amigas are fast enough to play WMV3 files anyway.
 As for a converter, we just need an up-to-date FFMpeg compile.
