[linux-audio-announce] OpenJay Development Krew [OJDK]

by J_Zar

Finally, I would like to introduce the OpenJay Development Krew [OJDK], which actually is only a mailing list with little mail-traffic. The OJDK is the right place for OSS Dj oriented software developers: here you should find the right audience for discussing, sharing and improving code, take / give suggestions and similar. The OSS software is actually a powerful alternative (and with always greater occurrence a refferral point) in many fields. Although it is not the djing OSS case. There are many reasons for that: little OSS compatible hardware, few and small projects... few users... The closed ring of open dj software is based upon few users and few developers. Crashing it is my intention. To do that my efforts are enclosed in three projects (enough to cover the whole issue) : - OpenJay.org : the user side of the opensource dj world ; - OpenJay Development Krew [OJDK] : the developer side of the opensource dj world ; - Jay'O'Rama : my personal software solution which I'm developing since 1 year and that will be only an alternative ; You should think to OJDK not as a project factory, but mainly as an improving factor for code and a discussing place. Projects will come if needed and desired. Please...if you are an interested developer, CATCH THE OPPORTUNITY, join the OJDK list and mail it! More than money or hardware, I need more than ever some community help in these directions... There are already some project developers joined our little community. See the homepage for more info: http://www.openjay.org/ojdk http://www.ojdk.tk -- J_Zar Gianluca Romanin ---------------- see you at OpenJay.Org

[linux-audio-announce] minor updates to Linux soundapps site

by Dave Phillips

Greetings: I've made some minor updates and URL corrections for the Linux soundapps site, but I've also discovered a problem with the European mirror. The site at www.linuxsound.at now presents an advertisement for ATNET, and the advert includes a link to http://linuxsound.atnet.at. Alas, that link doesn't work correctly either. I've written to ATNET twice already and have heard nothing from them. If the problem persists for another week I'll remove that link. The Japanese mirror is also experiencing a problem: apparently it isn't updating the top and TOC pages, which is uncool because I've added material to both those parts. Hopefully the Japanese mirror will update completely by this weekend. For the time, the only completely current site for the Linux soundapps pages is now: http://linux-sound.org And you all know the rest... Best regards, dp

Feel free to forward around] Florence, 29 May 2004 +++ THE AGNULA PROJECT CALLS FOR HELP: NEWSLETTER EDITORS NEEDED The AGNULA project is in dire need of a fresh and motivated team of editors for its newsletter [0] (which has long been silent for lack of manpower). If you are not a developer or a packager, this is your chance to contribute to our common goal - spreading Libre Software in the professional audio field. +++ The AGNULA project is in dire need of a fresh and motivated team of editors for its newsletter [0] (which has long been silent for lack of manpower). If you are not a developer or a packager, this is your chance to contribute to our common goal - spreading Libre Software in the professional audio field. Starting from November 2003, the AGNULA Newsletter has collected all the major news around the world regarding: - new Libre Software projects focused on audio/video (synthesis, editing, midi, digital signal processing, recording, etc); - new releases of existing Libre Software projects focused on audio/video (same as above); - events, workshops, meetings devoted to audio/video in which Libre Software plays a significant role; - new audio/video projects (or news about existing project) not directly related to software, which help spreading the concept and the practice of Libre Knowledge; In the last weeks, however, the AGNULA Newsletter has stopeed - we basically don't have the manpower to take care of it anymore. Now it's your chance to step forward! Applicants should: - be well aware that this is a volunteer position. We are not able to pay anyone for working on our newsletter right now; [1] - be fluent in english, the language our newsletter is written in; - have good writing skills. Although the bulk of the work is simply collecting news that get sent to a dedicated mailing list (more on this below) being able to rephrase a piece of news is absolutely necessary in order to provide a readable newsletter; - know the Free Software audio world reasonably well (you don't need to be a senior developer, but knowing on which sites to look for information or whom to ask is a definitive plus and will make your job much easier); - be able to use e-mail and CVS; How does the preparation of the AGNULA newsletter work? People send news they think are noteworthy to the newsletter-collect(a)lists.agnula.org http://lists.agnula.org/mailman/listinfo/newsletter mailing list. Newsletter editors should be subscribed to it in order to have the rough material which can be later inserted into the newsletter. We have created an `ad hoc' GForge project for our newsletter: http://devel.agnula.org/projects/newsletter and, accordingly, a dedicated CVS repository: http://devel.agnula.org/scm/?group_id=18 If you want to become an editor for the AGNULA newsletter, you should register on our development portal: http://devel.agnula.org/account/register.php and ask Andrea Glorioso <sama(a)agnula.org> to be inserted into the "newsletter" project. From now onwards, you will be able to use the CVS repository, where the newsletter past issues and the issue being prepared are kept. Once the newsletter is ready, it can be sent to the newsletter-dist(a)lists.agnula.org http:/lists.agnula.org/mailman/listinfo/newsletter-dist mailing list, though which it will be distributed to (currently) more than 100 subscribers. Until we could, we tried to make weekly releases of the newsletter. This is not a hard requirement - it's a volunteer task, after all - but it would be fantastic if we managed to keep everything at this pace. If you think you are the right person for the job, don't hesitate writing us at: users(a)lists.agnula.org So that all our community can discuss about your ideas and how you want to proceed. Don't hesitate to write us even though somebody else already did: our goal is to create a medium-sized pool of volunteers able to handle the AGNULA newsletter. We perfectly understands that more often than not "real life" takes precedence over what we would like to do, but we'd like nonetheless to provide the AGNULA project with a continuos support as far as the newsletter goes. Thank you for your time reading this, and thank you in advance for all the help you will be able to give. +++ About AGNULA: Agnula (acronym for A GNU/Linux Audio distribution, pronounced with a strong g) is the name of a project funded until April 2004 by the European Commission (number of contract: IST-2001-34879; key action IV.3.3, Free Software: towards the critical mass). After the end of the funded period, AGNULA is continuing as a volunteer based project, aiming to spread Libre Software in the professional audio/video arena.

Once we have a formal structure in place which can decide on the allocation of money, and once we have the money :), we could possibly be in a position to pay our newsletter editors. Of course, we can't do any promise at the moment.

As our long-time users know, the AGNULA web site (specifically, http://www.agnula.org/) has for a long time in need of a reshaping effort. Many informations contained therein are obsoleted, since AGNULA is not an EC funded project anymore, and the partners which are actively working on the various AGNULA sub-projects are not necessarily the same as 2002, when all of this began.

We are not able to pay anyone for working on our website right now; [0] - know Plone reasonably well. We are not particularly tied to using Plone as our platform for http://www.agnula.org/, but our webmaster should at least be able to export all the necessary data and in general analyze the current situation through Plone and Zope management interfaces; - know the relevant W3C standards that apply to the work at hand. Right know HTML 4.x and CSS 1.x / 2.x will do the job just fine; - be moderately fluent in english. Contents for the website shouldn't be directly provided by the webmaster, but a basic ability to understand "what goes where" is a plus. :) - have a positive, proactive attitude towards the job.
