== MediaDB next-generation ==

=== Database ===

   * switch from Axiom to Storm or plain Sqlite?
   * new schemas for Images and Videos
   * add Podcasts to the Audio schema

=== Metadata ===

   * switch to GStreamer for metadata extraction[[BR]]
     [jmsizun] What about [http://doc.freevo.org/2.0/Kaa#head-919960011a3523a465d1cacc57f2f8e7b0e8ad00 kaa.metadata] from Freevo?[[BR]]
     [dev] afaik gpl and not usable from within a MIT app[[BR]]
     [superdump] The same goes for mutagen, I guess.
   * include also data about playtime and quality

=== Media files ===
   * provide ways to 'import' and remove media (command-line or web-ui)
   * only import properly tagged files?
   * web-ui to add or correct tags
   * make the backend file changes aware (inotify, pyinotify)

=== License ===

 * licence to GPL and make it a separate application 'only' using Coherence, to allow the use of GPL-only modules?
