Please don't advertise Exaile on this list.

I don't have anything against someone deciding to try to clone Amarok in GTK 
(regardless of how much better it might be to put their energies towards 
making Amarok even better) -- imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.  
But the Exaile dev has a history of doing things like using #amarok to not 
only advertise his wares but to try to recruit developers and artists to work 
on Exaile instead of Amarok.  It's totally not cool.
