I've checked in some changes for CocosDenshion.

Added looping property to CDSourceWrapper so that looping flag can be toggled during playback. (Thanks to Pablo Ruiz)
Added fix to ensure mp3 files are not decoded in software on 3.0 (Thanks to Bryan/Accleroto)
Added mute property to CDAudioManager
Added stopBackgroundMusic method with flag to indicate whether resources should be released (Thanks to Dominique Bongard)
Added functionality to mute channel groups, for example the following code toggles mute for a channel group
```
[soundEngine setChannelGroupMute:CGROUP_DRUMLOOP mute:![soundEngine channelGroupMute:CGROUP_DRUMLOOP]];
```
Added handlers for resign active and become active to CDAudioManager (Thanks to Dominique Bongard/ob1). For example the following code will result in the audio manager automatically listening for application resign active and application become active events and stopping/starting the background music as appropriate.
```
[[CDAudioManager sharedManager] setResignBehavior:kAMRBStopPlay autoHandle:TRUE];
```

I've started adding documentation for CocsDenshion in the Wiki.

This section is particularly important as most people don't realise there are three different interfaces for using CocosDenshion and which one you pick dictates which files and frameworks to include in your project.

Good to see all those features. Great work Steve.

@steve: nice work.

I would like to move CocosDenshion from 'experimental' to 'stable' for v0.8
Basically it means:
- move the CocosDenshion folder from /experimental to /
- move the example from /experimental/CocosDenshion/CocosDenshionSample to /tests/CocosDenshionSample

Also, could you create a CocosDenshion "domain" on the wiki ?
Eg:
/wiki/doku.php/cocosdenshion:faq
/wiki/doku.php/cocosdenshion:cookbook
/wiki/doku.php/cocosdenshion:license

etc...

Notice the ":".

Creating a "domain" will keep the documentation a little bit more organized, and it is easier to browse since it will create a 'tag'.

What do you think ?

Riq:

Just curious, as I am working on a Cocos2d tutorial for absolute beginners (like me), will the other experimental sound engine be removed? I have written the 'sound' part of the tutorial yet, but I will probably use CocosDenshion when I do.

@clj: I don't have plans to remove the PASoundEngine, at least not for v0.8. It has different features than CocosDenshion.

@Riq - no problems with your suggestions, I'll do it today.

Nice work Steve. I'm seriously thinking about ditching my version of Apple's SoundEngine.cpp when I update my latest game to 0.8. It looks like this has all the features I need.

Thanks!
