so far I cant find reports on LAC 2007 on Blogs
or newspages, neither
on Linux related nor electronic music ones.
Nope, they're generally not interested. The last time I notified
Slashdot about the conference they put it in their Linux section and it
got little response (except from the typical /. crowd of naysayers.
There was no mention of it at all this year. LJ didn't think it worthy enough to fund a
reporter's trip. AFAIK there
were no official reps from any major music or music tech magazines. The
commercial music software market is small, small enough for the
manufacturers to possibly perceive Linux audio software as a most
unwelcome alternative.
Wasn't this years LAC sponsored by Ableton though?
