“Along with the work at the sprint in Randa, we’ve worked on the
Dynamic Playlists, and some of the Internet Services. The new
Dynamic Playlist should be easier to understand. Some of the
functionality changes are: New AlbumPlay example playlist, a
Quiz-play bias that will pick a song that starts with the same
character the last one ended with, and preventing duplicate tracks.
In the meantime our Google Summer of Code and Season of KDE
students have been hard at work in git branches bringing Amarok
Mobile to fruition, and new podcast integration with
Gpodder.net.

You will notice that you can now drag and drop on Collections,
to copy or move within Local Music, and also directly from the
Playlist. We also got patches for various bugs and wishes: you can
now configure the names of Podcast episodes, thanks to Sandeep
Raghuraman, and automatic scrolling in the Lyrics applet is
possible, thanks to Jan Gerrit Marker. Classical music listeners,
you now have the option to scrobble the composer as artist to
Last.fm.
