Implementation of CD stack collection view as a beginner

[Leon York]

Hey Nakkapat,

I have no problems about working with you on the project, though I'm
probably going to be following my own proposal at
http://leondoes.servebeer.com/GSoCAmarokProposal.pdf . I am only just
getting started on it (I only just moved back home and need to get kde
installed again) and I'm going to be doing paid work outside of Amarok over
the summer as well - it's not possible to live for free! Anyway, get in
touch. IRC is good!

Regards,

Leon
