I believe that you are correct... though it does have some additional
features that are not available in the sourceforge version, primarily
that it supports the iTunes name gathering API's properly. I have
investigated what needs to be done there, but am making slow headway :-)
I have gotten it to compile (with the help of the patches from David
Waite) and have reduced the size of the output by a bit with some code
pruning...

My current plan is to get the OGG component working and updated to
support comments, with any luck this will take long enough for Monty's
library changes to take place and FLAC will just become automagically
supported ;-) Otherwise I will then turn my attention to getting the
FLAC streams to work.

Cheers,
Paul
