oops
Still trying to optimise the mixer layer. Taking a break for a few weeks while I prepare for Linux.conf.au at the end of the month, and University assignments.

Making slow progress
For the last few days I've been tweaking the new mixing routines to try and get them not to interrupt the graphics update on Looper Advance. Hopefully the problem will be solved shortly and there can finally be a new release.

Audio manager
Finished re-writing the hardware layer to the GBA audio system, which also manages samples, and does the mixing. Looper Advance now no longer contains any closed source parts, and a new release is very nearly ready.

Themes, documentation, audio hardware layer
Themes are fully implemented now. There's a new default theme. Also added some documentation (README) with help on how to build. Very nearly finished re-writing the audio hardware inteface layer.

Theme support
Got theme support well along the way today, adding a python script (using pygame) which converts png files into c files to be compiled into the ROM. Themeing Looper Advance will soon be as easy as typing "make THEME=mythemename".
