Retrovol - Do you want?

[Misalf]

I made myself a retrovol.tcz and was wondering if I should submit it.
It isn't even available for 4.x but I'm not sure why.
Are there any licensing related problems or something (I don't know anthing about that) or is it simply not available just because nobody submitted it?

It takes ~8MB RAM (quite a lot actually).

Hi Misalf
From the COPYING file for retrovol on github:

This software is released into the public domain.
 
This software includes the eggtrayicon.c and eggtrayicon.h libraries, which
were released under the GNU LGPL.  They are copyrighted by Anders Carlsson,
not myself.  I claim no credit for them; they are unmodified.  Copies of the
GNU GPL and GNU LGPL are included in this package named gpl.txt and lgpl.txt,
in compliance with Section 4e of the GNU LGPL.

So there should be no licensing problems.

Thank you for taking your time to check that out.

Should I include a copy of the LGPL if I would submit retrovol.tcz?

Hi Misalf

Should I include a copy of the LGPL if I would submit retrovol.tcz?

No. In the info file for  Copying-policy:  just list  LGPL

Thanks, I will.

I don't have a 'testing environment' so I only know that retrovol works with ALSA. I don't know about OSS or anything else.

So if at least one person wants retrovol and makes a post here, I'll submit it.
