There may be some misunderstanding about this. Lao is not opposed to listing anyone on the linuxaudio.org site but in return we ask that your project joins linuxaudio.org as that is how we can increase our own support and consequently leverage for the overall linux audio community. Linuxaudio.org hopes to unite all linux audio efforts (or perhaps I should say linux multimedia efforts as some of our members’ software tools go beyond aural) but it does so in a true spirit of the FOSS doctrine. All linux audio (FOSS or not) projects are welcome to join but we obviously cannot force anyone to do so, yet we would very much like to have all become a part of the consortium. Please note that we judge membership eligibility solely based on the project’s relevance to our mission rather than its choice of license, meaning any linux multimedia project who wishes to join is eligible whether that be a project by a corporation or an independent FOSS developer.

 

That being said, if for whatever reason you’ve joined the consortium and we have not listed you on the members list I sincerely apologize for that and I can assure you we will make every effort to remedy this asap.

 

As for the main news announcements we try our best to monitor la* lists for announcements and post them there. However, given that the webmaster (as all of us at lao are) is a volunteer, sometimes these things are posted with a bit of delay.

 

Hope this clarifies things a bit.

 

Best wishes,

The Arch Linux pro-audio community offering would be http://code.google.com/p/proaudio/

It's like what Planet CCRMA is to RPM-based platforms, which is also missing from the list. That leads me to believe, however, that third party projects aren't counted.

Same here, we lack a link to Gentoo's pro-audio overlay :-)
