The Asset Manager - An LGPL'ed model/view component for managing multimedia assets.

The Asset Manager is in the design stage right now. This will be the first module implemented in Snaglepuss. The goal of this module is to provide a drag and drop interface for managing multimedia assets such as music, still pictures and movie files. All assets inserted into the asset manager will be copied and placed into an asset archive which will become a central source for applications to retrive their assets. At first the asset manager will be simple, resembling little more than a glorified thumnail view file manager optimized for multimedia files. Future improvements include integration into editing applications for batch editing, client server architecture for enteprise asset management and P2P capabilities for colabrative work on assets.
