Re: [Consortium] SPAM: Re: free software at the tonmeistertagung 2008 - a retrospection

by Ivica Ico Bukvic

Allow me to reverberate everyone else's compliments. Many thanks Sebastian for organizing this as well as for an opportunity to present on behalf of Linuxaudio.org. It has been indeed a great pleasure seeing old friends and meeting new faces. Let's make sure to keep in touch and hopefully follow-through at least on some of the great ideas suggested below. P.S. I am forwarding this to the consortium list. Hope no one minds :-) Best wishes, Ivica Ico Bukvic, D.M.A. Composition, Music Technology Director, DISIS Interactive Sound & Intermedia Studio Assistant Co-Director, CCTAD CHCI, CS, and Art (by courtesy) Virginia Tech Dept. of Music - 0240 Blacksburg, VA 24061 (540) 231-6139 ico(a)vt.edu http://www.music.vt.edu/faculty/bukvic/ > -----Original Message----- > From: Sebastian Gabler [mailto:gabler@tonmeister.de] > Sent: Tuesday, November 18, 2008 10:39 AM > To: Armand Klenk > Cc: Jörn Nettingsmeier; Herbert Gnauer; Ivica Ico Bukvic; Paul Davis; > bubestinger(a)fsfeurope.org; martin rumori > Subject: Re: SPAM: Re: free software at the tonmeistertagung 2008 - a > retrospection > > Hi Armand and all, > > the roundtable has been filmed and will be streamed from the > conference's website in a couple of weeks, AFAIK.

We'll try to make sure that a member of linuxaudio.org can be there. Cheers! Daniel

Hoping to be member of the Linuxaudio.org consortium

by Ismael Valladolid Torres

[1]Linux AV is my blog on the multimedia experience using GNU/Linux and free software. Once I was listed in the [2]Linuxaudio.org members section, but my link was erased probably because I stopped the blogging activity. The blog is back since weeks ago, and AFAIK is the only blog in spanish devoted entirely to Linux audio and video work. 1. http://linuxav.blogspot.com 2. http://linuxaudio.org/members I'd be glad and honoured if the link to my site was recovered there. Thanks in advance.

Hi Mike, > There are a couple of ways the Linux Foundation can assist Linux Audio: > > 1) A call for participation for the next Collab Summit is going out, > it'd be great to see audio issues as part of that. In particular there > is desktop track where audio issues should be a key part Thanks for the tip - please send me the announcement when it's available. Our remit at linuxaudio.org actually extends beyond the desktop and what is normally considered as 'consumer' audio, because we have a focus on the more demanding professional audio and broadcast markets. Of course, there is some overlap, because so much production work is done on PC-like systems nowadays. > If you don't already have a free account, please go to > linuxfoundation.org <http://linuxfoundation.org> to be included in our > upcoming communications. I've signed up for LF Site Access, if that's the same thing - username danieljames. > 2) Also, you likely already have your infrastructure needs taken care, > but we'd happy to help by having your efforts on our wiki and liststervs > if that is something linuxaudio.org <http://linuxaudio.org> finds useful. Thanks, but we have a server provided by Virginia Tech. I notice the Foundation has a Sound and Multimedia workgroup with a page at https://www.linuxfoundation.org/en/Linux_Sound_and_Multimedia - perhaps we can help with that workgroup. Cheers! Daniel
