Hi Alexandre,

thanks for you reply and involvement in the project (that's a think that 
unfortunately I can't directly do, since I'm just a "curious user").

The plugin you mean I think is lastfm_queue, that I'm already using all 
that time (and I'd like
to see in /trunk).

About your contribution, I hope, sorry, I'm sure you'll create a 
fantastic plugin, and I'm waiting for it (I know, it's stupid, but since 
rb is my most used software I want to do everything with it... also 
playing guitar - I think someone wanted to add guitar tabs some weeks 
ago... )!

Anyway, right now I'm testing "get new plugin" and I'll give quick a 
feedback.

Thanks again.

enjoy, ;)
