hi *! this unfortunate announcement from nedko seems to have spawned a discussion on LAA. LAA list policy used to be no follow-ups except for factual corrections. the idea was to keep the traffic low for people who want to stay informed but not have to wade through too much mail. (think lwn.net among others.) can i suggest that all further contributions to this LAA thread be NAKed by the moderator, please? the discussion is certainly important, but it should continue on LAD or LAU. that said, while i can understand nedko's POV, the initial message never really belonged on LAA either. obviously, such announcements _will_ cause heated discussion, so they should be made in a forum which allows them. best, jörn -------- Original Message -------- Subject: [LAA] my lv2-related projects Date: Tue, 21 Aug 2012 06:34:49 +0300 From: Nedko Arnaudov &lt;nedko(a)arnaudov.name&gt; To: linux-audio-announce(a)lists.linuxaudio.org I'm abandoning all lv2 related projects that I currently maintain. Here is a list: * zynjacku/lv2rack * lv2fil * ssg * lv2vocoder * lv2dynparam * external ui extension * lv2zynadd [partially, see below] * maybe something else I dont recall right now The zyn-rewrite project that produced lv2zynadd stays but will be cleared from all lv2 code. If anyone wants to take over the maintainership of any project of mine, contact me. I'll wait a month before wiping out all online lv2-related resources I control. I don't want to participate in the lv2 madness anymore. I admit I cannot communicate rationally with David Robillard. If contributing is not pleasure, then a one doesn't belong to the community. I wish everyone inloved more luck than I had. -- Nedko Arnaudov <GnuPG KeyID: 5D1B58ED>
