A Note From the Author of aRts
==============================

   In a recent post to kde-core-devel
[https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-core-devel] Stefan
Westerfeld, author of the KDE multimedia framework aRts
[http://www.arts-project.org/], announced that he would no longer be
maintaining it
[http://lists.kde.org/?l=kde-core-devel&m=110200188523177&w=2].  He has
written a note on further development of aRts
[http://www.arts-project.org/doc/arts-maintenance.html] explaining some
of the problems with aRts' design decisions.  aRts was a pioneering
system and a major help in bringing multimedia to Free Software, thanks
to Stefan for making it happen.
