Howdy all,

I did give up for a while. The discussion is here:

https://github.com/pure-data/pure-data/pull/897 
<https://github.com/pure-data/pure-data/pull/897>

I still have the relevant code but there was simply too much to do back then 
and I had to pull back and put it on the back burner. It's still something I 
think should be working in Pd, but maybe restricted to *read* only as a start 
instead of me trying to implement full write access.

My first focus is to get the sound file updates into a Pd release as we need 
CAF and AIFC support for a major project at work: 
https://github.com/pure-data/pure-data/pull/855 
<https://github.com/pure-data/pure-data/pull/855>

Once that is in, say Pd 0.52, then I can refactor the previous meta read code, 
otherwise there is no-one stopping someone from writing an external using 
something like libsndfile to poop out metadata....
