I just switched most parts of freevo config to the kaa.config. Is
someone here willing to help to create a config editor? One idea is to
put this into the webserver, but the webser is not working. Beside
$EDITOR, a gtk gui would be nice.

To create such a config writer, NO knowledge of freevo 2.0 internals
are needed and from kaa you only need some understanding of
kaa.config. I will answer questions regarding that module. To access
the config you only need to 'from freevo.ui.config import config' and
config the the generic kaa.config object with descriptions, type
definitions, default values, etc.


Anyone?
