Hello,
My name is Arvind and I am pursuing my bachelor's degree in Computer Science
and Engineering. I would like to propose a new idea for GSoC. Here is a
brief description about the idea.


   -

     *Project title:* Universal Media Controller
   -

   *Synopsis*: The basic idea is to implement a media controller that allows
   a user to control the currently running music player even when the screen is
   locked.
   -

   *Deliverables*: A working media player controller that is displayed at
   all times-a one stop controller. An API that can be used to build
   interesting applications around music players without the need to interface
   with DBus directly.
   -

   *Project details*: The controller basically works using the DBus
   interface-most modern media players have implemented a DBus interface.
   Ideally I would like to implement an API sort of interface that allows the
   application to simply access the media without actually knowing the active
   player. The API also allows enables more developers to develop interesting
   applications around it too.
