In a nutshell, the lad site is being moved to Paul's server but the domain 
continues (at least for the time being) to be inaccessible. Another 
consideration is the .com extension current linuxdj has which may be something 
worth discussing, especially considering that most of the LA software is not 
of corporate origin. As far as my proposition is concerned, you are the first 
one expressing any interest in it...

Regarding moving Linuxaudio.org, I'd be more than happy to provide space for 
such a move as well as any other Web-related Linuxaudio.org incentives, 
including potential consolidation of project summaries into one Wiki 
meta-resource, as suggested in my earlier e-mail.

Best wishes,

Ico
