###### ORIGINAL SUBMISSION DETAILS ######

System Group Name:
-----------------
  fandangle


Full Name:
----------
  The Fandangle Project
  

Type:
-----
  GNU


License:
-------- 
  GNU General Public License V2 or later


Other License: 
--------------
  GNUstep Frameworks, Bundles, and Libraries will be licensed with the

 This keeps Fandangle aligned with the GNUstep project's licensing as well.


Description:
------------
  The Fandangle project aims to deliever a useful media backend suitable
for use in creating desktop environments and applications based on the
GNUstep project (www.gnustep.org), a free software implementation of
the OpenStep specification.

Media interfacing applications and frameworks exist, but none that
integrate easily with GNUstep or Objective-C.  GNUstep itself runs on
multiple platforms, and the Fandangle project aims to create an
extensible structure to interface with the audio and visual hardware
on these platforms.  Development focus will focus on GNUstep
installations running on top of free software platforms, such as
GNU/Linux, but with the power of Objective-C and GNUstep, little work
should have to be done to bring Fandangle to any platform.
