Hi,

> If so, what is need to be done so Moodbar will be included in Amarok 2.x?

Someone has to implement it. ;-)
But, honestly, Moodbar was nice to look at, but not very powerful.
Think of the following ideas that take the ideas of Moodbar to the next
level:

*Build a metric of some kind for each song (not just an image file)
*With that you can /compare/ Songs
-> Dynamic Playlists for "really similar" songs, based on the result of
 music analysis. Or playlists representing "Paths" through a 2-dimensional
 view of your collection. Tagging by marking clusters in that 2D "map" of
 your library,...
Oh, yes, and you could still create JPEGs to spam whatever part of the
GUI you want. ;-)


If you want to work on that feel free to contact us, but at the moment we
have to work on getting Amarok 2 into release ready shape, so this is no
priority for us.
