Hi all.
I seem to remember someone proposed to wear some kind on standardized
T-Shirts at the GNU/Linux Audio Centre (Sounds Expo 2004). Did you
reach any definitive conclusion on it?
We are currently evaluating some options for the AGNULA T-Shirts and
caps, and if we manage to have it I'd like to ask Damien if he could
wear it during the event.
bye,
andrea

The question is - why having dozens of sites with linuxaudio unrelated names
such as djcj.org or linuxaudiobase.org if you can have all under linuxaudio.org?
Linux Audio developers
Linux Audio users
Linux Audio advocates
Linux Audio projects
Linux Audio applications
Linux Audio documentation
Linux Audio tutorials
Linux Audio mailing lists
Linux Audio forums
Linux Audio news
Linux Audio organisation
Linux Audio you name it
Linux Audio *
Linux Audio.
You can't have a better promotion than having a domain name with exactly that name -
Linux Audio.

I have appended a call issued by Jean-François Junger, European Commission,
DG Information Society which might be interesting for linuxaudio.org

Hi,
I just thought I send the list this link to a document written by Andy
Wingo about GStreamer and where we stand in regards to pro-audio.
The doc is a mix of where we are/what we are focusing on.
http://freedesktop.org/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/gstreamer/gstreamer/docs/random/…
Thought it might be of a little general interest,
Christian
So I'm in my local music shop, which mostly sells guitars and amps and
so on. I ask if they would like to have some Sounds Expo flyers on
the counter, and mention that I'm going to be there myself on one of
the stands (by way of explanation).
The shop assistant asks which stand, I say the GNU/Linux Audio Centre.
The shop assistant replies 'I'll come to see that - I'm writing some
plugins for Brahms'.
Now that has never happened to me in a music shop before. Or anywhere
outside a Linux event, come to think of it. I see that as a positive
sign!
Cheers
Daniel

I'll do that as soon as we have a working logo.

"Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary (1913)"
Lad Lad, n. OE. ladde, of Celtic origin; cf. W. llawd, Ir.
lath. root123. Cf. Lass.
1. A boy; a youth; a stripling. ``Cupid is a knavish lad.''
--Shak.
There is a lad here, which hath five barley loaves
and two small fishes. --John vi. 9.
2. A companion; a comrade; a mate.
Lad's love. (Bot.) See Boy's love, under Boy.
"Webster's Revised Unabridged Dictionary (1913)"
Lad Lad, obs.
p. p. of Lead, to guide. --Chaucer.
"WordNet (r) 2.0"
lad
n 1: a boy or man; "that chap is your host"; "there's a fellow at
the door"; "he's a likable cuss" syn: chap, fellow,
feller, gent, fella, blighter, cuss
2: a male child (a familiar term of address to a boy) syn: cub,
laddie, sonny, sonny boy
I'm not sure LAUD is the right abbrev. since LAU stands for users, LAD for developers.
The interpretation could be misleading.

LAD has been here since 7 years or so, i don't think it's worth changing it.
People got used to it.
There are some very cool female linux audio developers, there's Melanie, the author of DJPlay IIRC
and there's Alicia(don't know her family name) doing some very cool physical modelling research.
