1 /* Initial set of ideas for GTK+ cdrecording application */
5 The aim of this project is to provide FOSS community with GTK+ cdrecording application,
6 with particular attention given to the usability of the software.
9 We believe that up to date no software exists which can fullfil the role of graphical
10 cdrecording application properly. Although each of them has it's own strenghts, most
11 of them use cdrecord and other applications for handling the burning, which we believe
12 are not up to the task in modern ages. Therefore we will use the innovative set of
13 libraries provided by the libburnia project for backend tasks. Our presentation to
14 the user will be through usability and simplicity, while offering a lot of advanced
15 features for those who need it.
21 - Widget library: GTK+-2.0
23 - Unit tests: CUnit (where applicable)
24 - GUI editor: Glade (will use GtkBuilder when available)
25 - Inital dependencies:
28 libburn, libisofs, libisoburn
32 - Version control: GIT
35 - Usability and simplicity
36 - Backend - Libburnia libs
37 - Keep dependencies low
38 - Provide meaningful error messages (if any ;-).
39 - Proper i18n and l10n
40 - Good and complete documentation (maybe docbook)
44 - Create Data discs (CD / DVD / blu-ray?/ HD-DVD?)
45 - Create Audio discs (cdtext editing, freeDB support)
46 - Disc clone (should also support copying audio cds with cdtext)
47 - Image burning and generating
48 - VCD and SVCD support
49 - Open / Save Projects (XML structure => libxml2)
50 - Import/Export project to/from other formats
53 - Use multiple burners at once (for same project, or other project)
54 - Record multiple copies of a disc/project
55 - Verification of burnt medium (SHA1 => libgcrypt)
56 - Image preview (GtkIconView)
57 - Clone 8 gig DVD to 4 gig DVD-R
58 - OGG CD/DVD support (data cd/dvd)
59 - Other features (tbd as we go)
70 - Nicely designed Webpage (bad or no web page distracts users)
71 - Integrated wiki, bug tracker, localization tool (Retrospectiva)
72 - IRC channel on freenode
