There did not seem to be any interest in the Sana playlist converter for SVN,
that is the only reason I did not think it would be added. If additional IPod support
will get my app into SVN I will do my best to add the support.

Well, I (and I guess most devs) would prefer separate plugins. The reason your patch didn't got much attention is most likely that most (all?) devs don't use the original firmware any more ... ;)
A good way to get your patch accepted is to look around on IRC and discuss it -- that way you'll also get fast feedback if there are any changes to do before it gets accepted.

Do I understand then that you would prefer a seperate Ipod playlist converter and not just added support for Ipods in my Sansa playlist converter?
I would have thought a single app with multiple playlist formats support would be better, but whatever will be accepted, or is wanted.

If there is any interest in me doing this I will need a Ipod playlist before I can get started.

We'd probably just want to enable your plugin for the Sansa, and enable a second plugin on the Ipod.  If, however, the two plugins would only be trivially different, then maybe its not worth separating them.

I think that as long as you can justify the way you do things, and its not plainly counterproductive, no one is going to make a big deal about it.

I guess there is no point in having sansa playlist support for Ipod or vise versa.
Two individual plugins would be easier and faster to do.
There has not been any feedback from the people who wanted this feature only from the Devs. Does anybody want me to do an IPod playlist to RB playlist converter?
