Hi Ico,
by January 2018 those numbers grew to over 10TB of
monthly traffic with
over 7 million hits spread across 40 vhosts.
Woot!
I believe it is
time to once again mobilize the management group and to establish an
advisory board or a steering committee that will help steer the
consortium and jointly explore ways to provide better and more
consistent support, ensure we offer up-to-date information, to grow the
resources, their visibility, and footprint
Sounds good to me :-)
as well as consider
establishing a foundation that may help facilitate and support critical
programs, including the LAC conference.
I think we'd need at least one major sponsor to cover the overheads of a
foundation. There are a whole bunch of big companies now shipping
millions of audio-critical products based on the Linux kernel, compared
to hardly any when we started.
So I'd suggest the first step would be to find someone prepared to reach
out to the likes of Google, TI or Toyota for support, preferably someone
used to dealing with corporates. Sponsorship opportunities for this
year's LAC would be a good, low commitment way for them to get involved.
Cheers!
Daniel
