Hi John, nice to hear from you again. :)
1. Is there anywhere non programmers can suggest an
application to be
developed? I am sure there are many non programmers with great ideas
lurking on this list.
Why not this list and the LAD list ?
The biggest potential problem: Many ideas, not so many programmers.
2. Sometime ago I registered opensourcemusic.info. It
is very out of
date, and a bit shabby really. I was hoping to turn it into a simple
listings site for newbies. Perhaps have LAA mails autoposted. Anyone
have any ideas what to do with it?
I like the notion of posting the LAA mail.
3. I have been chatting with Gianluca who runs openjay
about the idea
of putting together a little award or prize for the LAU community.
Perhaps for the years best project or individual. It wouldnt be too
difficult to set up a poll which people can suggest a project/person
and vote on it. I am unemployed at the moment, but happy to contribute
some funds. I am sure many others would be. It is another oppurtunity
to give something back. What do you think?
Most of the major players already have PayPal or some similar donation
system, it would be nice if people used those. But I'm all in favor of
anything that can get some dinero moving towards Linux audio libre
software developers.
Best,
