Description Daniel Mettler 2002-08-11 14:17:37 UTC
ReBorn rocks: See http://www.deadvirgins.org.uk/reborn/reborn.html  
  
ReBorn 1.0 binary ebuild available (the sources of ReBorn have not been 
released yet). Download reborn-bin-1.0.tar.gz (OpenPGP signature: 
reborn-bin-1.0.tar.gz.asc), extract it in /usr/portage and do an emerge 
reborn-bin. Dedicated to David J. Singer, the creator of ReBorn. 
 
Passes lintool, as usual.

this is my (Daniel Mettler <mettlerd@icu.unizh.ch>) openpgp signature of
reborn-bin-1.0.tar.gz
Comment 3 Daniel Mettler 2002-08-11 15:01:38 UTC
nb. this ebuild is for x86 only (as reborn is a x86 binary) 
Comment 4 Seemant Kulleen (RETIRED) gentoo-dev 2002-08-11 17:05:23 UTC
app-emulation, I'm guessing (or media-sound).  Daniel?
Comment 5 Daniel Mettler 2002-08-11 17:20:10 UTC
it's media-sound. the attached tarball reborn-bin-1.0.tar.gz contains 
everything required (check my signature and extract it to /usr/portage). you 
only need to adjust the included changelog. 
Comment 6 Daniel Mettler 2002-08-17 10:06:08 UTC
it's a pity, but i have to cancel this ebuild submission as david had to 
remove reborn from his website due to propellerhead (the company 
behind "rebirth") claiming infringement of their software rights. thus i close 
this ebuild report now and hope that reborn will be reborn once again soon 
with a new, even better gui :)

dan, staying tuned

david's statement can be read at:

http://www.deadvirgins.org.uk/reborn/index.html:

"It was fun while it lasted...
I have today been instructed by Propellerhead Software to remove ReBorn from 
my Website. The ReBorn user interface falls foul of the copyright inherent in 
the ReBirth product and is consequently an infringement of Propellerhead 
Software's rights. 

Unfortunatley, this situation means I have had to reverse my position on 
releasing the ReBorn source code, which will now not be made publicly 
available. However, the effort in developing ReBorn will not go entirely to 
waste. I already have plans to integrate the core audio code into a new soft-
synth application, with an all-new interface and 100% incompatibilty with all 
Propellerhead's products :-) 

Thankyou to all those people who contacted me to say nice things about ReBorn. 
I ask all of you to respect Propellerhead Software's wishes (as I have) and 
not to distribute the program on other websites.
