wxWidgets and Mac OS X

edit

"Currently development is focusing on the Linux & Windows editions as the current version of wxPython (specifically wxWidgets) has severe flaws on Mac OS X."

I know that it is stated on the musicbrainz blogthat

wxWidgets on OS X, even the 2.6.x version, is still not ready for prime time

But here is a list of "Software that uses wxWidgets". These are Mac OS X programs I have used and haven't found the issues mentioned in the blog:

aMule - 'All-platform' P2P client based on eMule
Audacity - an open source sound editor
VLC media player - cross platform multimedia player

So I think the part

as the current version of wxPython (specifically wxWidgets) has severe flaws on Mac OS X

should be deleted.

you obviously haven't tried using wxPicard under OS X or linux then :D it really is borked, we get like 3 people talking about bugs related to wxWidgets a week in the irc /forum. as a side note, picard is being ported to QT, which shoukd solve all these issues and more.

User Interface

edit

This app has the worst user interface of any consumer level program I've ever used. The workflow is utterly bamboozling. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.149.202.165 (talkcontribs) 13:24, 22 April 2007

I just want to mention that the above post is more than a year old and the program was rewritten and has a different interface now. --JonnyJD (talk) 00:48, 17 May 2008 (UTC)Reply

intro

edit

Picard is intended to be the next generation of tagger for MusicBrainz, with a focus on album oriented tagging as opposed to track based tagging and cross platform compatibility.

Maybe better this way?

Development

edit

Section goes into alot irrelevant details about versions of Python used, but fails to explain properly what the application actually does. Recent new paragraph added is not written in a neutral way and incorrectly implies there has been no devlopment at all since 2009 — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ijabz (talkcontribs) 14:13, 28 February 2018 (UTC)Reply
