 This is the Spheres and Crystals theme for GTK+, Nautilus and
 Metacity, which aims at providing a unified, blue Gnome desktop
 with an aquatic design, using icons from the BlueSphere, Connectiva
 Crystal and Gorilla metathemes. Its look also integrates with the
 KDE Liquid theme.

 Most of the icons are in the scalable SVG format, providing a fast,
 high quality rendering, especially on large displays.

  Description : Module for reading tags of MP3 audio files

  Tag is a wrapper module to read different tags of mp3 files. It
  provides an easy way to access the functions of separate modules which
  do the handling of reading/writing the tags itself.
  .
  At the moment MP3::Tag::ID3v1 and MP3::Tag::ID3v2 are supported.

The only binary package provides so far is libmp3-tag-perl, but this
will probably expand with time (there are som example scripts possibly
worthy of their own packages, particularly a Tk frontend (which requires
Tk::JPEG which is not in Debian)).

I have contacted upstream regarding the license, and he is in the
process of chosing one now.

Subject: Re: PPM compression algorithms.

Thank you for the detailed replies and for the analysis.

Can you close 179804 with the appropriate information from you and Charles
Bloom? I haven't learned the BTS system well enough. I assume Charles
Bloom's comments are a sufficient reason to close bug 179804.

Ok, I'll do that.

  I see that you say that PPMd is Marginally better than PPMZ and that
  it's better than PPMZ(2). Does that mean that you got PPMZ2 v0.8
  from May 14, 2002 working under linux or did you do a comparison with
  older versions or under MS Windows?

 Originally I was using an old version of PPMZ when doing the statement
 that PPMd is Marginally better than PPMZ. But since you brought it to my
 attention again I tested it again with the newest version of the linux
 port. The results from the test can be seen in
 /usr/share/doc/ppmd/PPMZ.txt in ppmd-9.1-2 (attached).

From Charles Blom:

Hi guys, a few notes :

PPMZ was never really intended for direct use in production software;
it's more of a test-bed.  For example, it was never really optimized.
Malcolm Taylor took a lot of the ideas of PPMZ and put them in RKive,
which is very fast.  Also, the so-called PPMd and PPMii are based on
PPMZ, and are more finely tweaked and optimized.

PPMii is very good; it's similar to PPMZ but tweaked and improved in
various ways.  The biggest difference is that he is doing a bit of
Context mixing and blending across contexts which are not directly
linked in the Markov chain.

PPMd - I don't think there are any actual papers on.  This is NOT the
PPMD algorithm of Bill Teahan, so it's somewhat mis-named.  I believe
it's very similar to PPMZ, but with some tweaks and special custom support
for text files and binaries.

Charles Bloom: Do you know why PPMd is performing better? Do you have any
suggestions for code that would be useful for me? I'd like to license my
code later like Ogg, gzip, zip and bzip2 so that it can be used in
commercial applications. Are you still developing PPMZ(2) or any other
compressors?

I'm no longer actively working in compression; I haven't really touched
the
PPMZ's in several years.  In modern stuff, PPMd is obviously good.  The
primary algorithms in this area are PPMZ and PPMii ; there are
implementations
like BOA and PPMonstr that are very good, and many more.

is this only a gtk theme, or does it include a metacity and icon theme
as well?
