Thanks schiv, this shows how much I'm out of the loop :)
The automatic building sounds nice and so does seanbutnotheards project.
I'm glad in future man-power won't be needed for tasks such as building
packages.
As for my part in the game, I'm happy if I manage to keep my AUR
packages up to date and standard.
Anyway, it's easy to contribute to archaudio
one way or another, and if
someone thinks it's worthwhile to create a ready-made CD there's no-one
stopping him. Arch means DIY.
And now it's even easier since we've pushed some helper scripts as
'archaudio-devtools'. Documentation will follow soon either on the
site or the wiki page. If the admin can find some time to include an
Arch chroot on the server (CentOS) to do daily builds, then we'd even
have automated, updated packages of bleeding-edge software! Anyone can
also do this locally with a cron job.
Other than that, the more popular packages should get to [community] at least.
The main reasons are (1) lack of manpower, and the only manpower
suffers from a (2) lack of time :p
Anyway, here is one effort by 'seanbutnotheard':
