[Consortium] Archival of Audio Distributions - Hall of Fame

Hi, I propose that we create a new subdomain called : distro.linuxaudio.org At this location we create a webpage that lists all the audio distributions for linux audio and serves as a canonical reference for projects that have been abandoned. We also host the latest/last version of every distribution on the list. Kind of like a history of Linux Audio Distributions. One appeal in hosting this at linuxaudio.org is that there are a few distros already hosted there. Another is that it might keep the flame burning for people who are thinking of rolling their own in the future. Distro's take a considerable amount of time and effort to produce so honouring them with a "Hall of Fame" so to speak is fulfilling the remit of the consortium to promote Linux Audio to a wider audience. Of course if there is no interest project I will set it up on linux-audio.com so either way we don't loose out. In an ideal situation we host the data in a couple of locations for redundancy. Given that linuxaudio.org servers are in the USA and linux-audio.com servers are in the EU it seems like a good combination to me. Taking it a step further maybe we can get some of the EU based Universities or institutes to contribute some hardware and then I don't have to pay for the EU host out of my own pocket. -- Patrick Shirkey Boost Hardware Ltd
