Hello everyone,

As I mentioned earlier on this thread, I have been working on an alternative Spotify client based on Qt (4.6) and the libopenspotify lib. Now, as the PR1.2 has been released with official Qt support, I have decided to release an initial alpha version of the client (called QSpot). The client is now available from the extras-devel repo (standard disclaimers apply), as well as from the project garage page (qspot.garage.maemo.org). There are still quite a few issues with the current release, which is to be expected from such an early version (such as e.g., problem with initiating playback from time to time on slower connections in particular, cpu usage etc.). Some of these issues are also related to the use of libopenspotify. Libopenspotify is however api-compatible with the official Spotify library, which at some point potentially could prove useful. That was one of the reason why I selected it instead of despotify (which e.g., Yaspot relies on). Feel free to try it out, any feedback is greatly appreciated! Find attached some screenshots from the QSpot client.
