Hi Damien, > Thanks a lot for the offer but I already have a reservation at the > Quality Hotels Wembley. That's fine - as long as you've got somewhere to stay! > I will arrive monday evening. Maybe we can arrange to meet > ourselves monday From my experience of travelling across London you will be arriving at your hotel quite late. It might be best for you if we meet at the Expo on the Tuesday morning before it opens. I suggest you call me on 0770 922 9254 and I'll meet you at the door with your badge. > I guess you will probably be at the booth to > prepare it. Yes indeed! > My plane arrives at Gatwick at 07:00 PM, I don't know > at what time I will be at Wembley (actually I have to check how to > reach Wembley...). Gatwick is quite far to the south of the city and Wembley is in the north-west. Your best bet is probably to get a train into central London, then take whichever train or underground line that your hotel recommends (there are a number of stations in that area). Cheers Daniel

PR Newswire

by Brian Thomson

I get press releases and other news sent to me every day, thanks to an agreement my employer has with Factiva, who get their press releases from PR Newswire (http://www.prnewswire.com/). This includes plenty of Linux news, big and small, so I was thinking that LinuxAudio could take advantage of this to get their important news out, e.g. the Sounds Expo visit next week. The good news is that any individual or organization can register with them and distribute their press releases globally: the bad news is that it costs $125 a year to do so. So, this is sonething to keep in mind for the future, perhaps. Thanks, Brian Thomson Dublin, Ireland -- (this is not a signature)

T-shirts

by Andrea Glorioso

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

linux audio base djcj linux-sound apps and midi page etc...

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. Marek

GStreamer and Pro-audio

by Christian Fredrik Kalager Schaller

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

Something strange happened...

by Daniel James

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

LAD

by Marek Peteraj

"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. Linux AUDio Linux Audio Users Developers + 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.
