+++ AGNULA @ 2nd LINUX AUDIO CONFERENCE

The  AGNULA project will be at  the second  Linux Audio Conference [0]
(Karlsruhe, 29 April-2 May 2004).

+++

The AGNULA project will be at the second Linux Audio Conference, to be
held at ZKM [1] (Karlsruhe, Germany, 29 April-2 May 2004).

AGNULA was  born in 2002 as  the first  totally Libre Software project
funded   by   the  European  Commission,    under  the  5th  Framework
Programme. Initially  focused   on building  two reference   GNU/Linux
distributions for  audio & video  (DeMuDi and RehMuDi) the project has
slowly  extended its goal towards   educating users on  the topics  of
Libre   Software,   with specific    attention  paid  to   audio/video
applications and content distribution.
                                                                                
The funded lifetime of AGNULA has now finished -  but the project will
continue its work on a partly volunteers/partly funded basis.
                                                                                
In his talk [2] Andrea Glorioso, former AGNULA technical manager, will
provide a  brief history of the project,  a bird's eye on  the current
situation, and the  plans for the future -  near, medium and long term
(i.e. world domination).
