Hello all,
I asked Sound on Sound magazine to provide a Linux forum on their site
(in addition to Windows, Mac, Atari etc) and they have done this
today. You can see the link at:
http://sound-on-sound2.infopop.net/2/OpenTopic
The forums are quite heavily used, and you don't need to subscribe to
the magazine to post messages.
Cheers
Daniel

I can't really use web forums - I already find difficult enough to
handle e-mail!
Is there some way to funnel these forums back and forth between
mailing lists?
Anyway, thanks - even though I won't probably use them, my guess is
that they will be a very useful resource for GNU/Linux novices.
Bye,

Yeah, I don't like 'em, and I'm signed up for 4. The forum is much
nicer IMHO because you can just pop in, see whats up, possibly say
something, and leave without any hassle. Mailing lists require that
you fill out a form, then setup folders and filters, and upgrade your
account to compensate for all the bandwidth your using. Lists are
also inferior for searching and categorizing since the integrity of a
thread can be comprimised by one response from a maladjusted client.
Another nice thing about forums is that you can sub-categorize them.
If the linux-audio scene were forumized, there would be one message
board with a sub-forum for developers and a sub-forum for users. This
way you could interact in both communities without having to sign-up
for two mailing lists.
But the biggest thing, in my opinion, is the level of commitment.
Mailing-list archives flat out suck, so the only real way to see
what's up is to join. It's an "are you in or out?" sorta proposition,
and it makes you feel like you gotta totally immerse yourself before
you're even allowed to see wtf is going on.

I do know what you mean, but it seems to me that the mainstream
computer musician with a Mac or PC tends to use web forums as well
as, or instead of, mailing lists.
Maybe this is because most of these people only started using the
internet after the browser was invented, who knows?

Hi Daniel,
For exposing Linux audio to Mac and Windows users,
that's got to be as good as it gets. I think the
timing is good. There's plenty of usable applications
and things just seem to keep getting better.
Great job.

Hear hear.
Adds a level of credibility to the Linux Audio platform that money
cannot buy.

Apparently upon the beginning of the barrage, the donkey broke
discipline and panicked, toppling the cart. At that point, the rockets
disconnected from the timer, leaving them strewn around the street.
Tethered to the now toppled cart, the donkey was unable to escape before
the arrival of U.S. troops.
