At the risk of being pedantic, what is wrong with the sound/audio section of
freshmeat?
It would be cool to have a similar audio specific site written by LAD types,
but I think it needs more of a unique angle to warrant the duplication of effort.
Dave's site is great because it is so low tech imho.
I think for advocacy purposes and general coolness, it would be nice to have a
site devoted to linux _musicians_ where we can upload and compare tracks and
production methods. More of an extension of LAU...
cheers,

dependencies
pretty well,
we could have a peek at whats happening there :)
It would be nice to provide app authors or packagers with a trivial
way to update the page when they release packages. A lot of the
information we want (release date, version, dependencies...) is
already in RPM spec files, debian control files, and gentoo ebuild
files - we should leverage that work.
