Hello, list,
From time to time, people release simple utilities and
scripts on this
list, things like aj-snapshot, jackctl.py, and many, many more.
Because
I'm totally disorganised, I keep these announcement in my LAU mbox,
either to keep the URL around, or because I don't have time to
investigate them but feel they might come in useful at some point. From
time to time, I also see queries such as "what was that script I
remember using several months ago", or "does any one know of a simple
way to do foo". Anyway, I thought it might be useful to have a place
(perhaps a wiki) where we could collect such information for easy
reference. Does such a place exist already? Is there an already existing
site/wiki where this might be added?
Cheers,
S.M.

I wonder that jack_snapshot wasn't and now aj-snapshot isn't included to
every distro by a package. To be fair, more and more up-to-date audio
apps are included to packages :), at least by third party repositories
that keep the system consistent.

The beauty of a community maintained wiki is that anyone with the
motivation can add new sections and content ;-)
Feel free to get stuck in. It works best if the people that have the itch
scratch it themselves rather than waiting for others to do it for them.
If there are questions about editing the wiki it's entirely reasonable to
discuss here.

I would appreciate an administrator who has an overview about Linux

Community projects rely on the entire community to provide the necessary
resources to maintain the content. The administrators can offer assistance
but should not be expected to keep the wiki content up to date unless they
are funded to do so, which they are not.
There is also an opportunity for a motivated person to organise a spring

Emanuel Rumpf has taken up that mantle - he send us a new stylesheet
(work in progress) for the wiki and is also responsible for most of the
additions to the apps-index and many wiki-pages. Kudos!
I'm planning a wiki-overhaul (wiki engine update, tag-name cleanup,
auto-highlight 404, etc) as part of a general system-update of the
linuxaudio.org server mid July. I'll announce it in time.
Cheers!

Ok, what to do with dead links?
E.g. Mixbas
http://home.swipnet.se/roses/sound.html
Keep it without a link, when you can't find any, or delete it
completely?
GAS
http://www.maths.ex.ac.uk/~luke/sound_development.html
Luke Tindall's GUI front-end for ecasound easily could be confused with
GNU assembler ;), I'm kidding.
I won't decide to remove hose and other links, just because I'm unable
to find links to the projects, OTOH dead links and no links are not
good.
Cheers!
Ralf

remove, or mark as DEAD_LINK (I didn't find any dedicated wiki syntax for

software without source isn't worth much
dead links are worth nothing (I've seldom seen a dead link coming back to life)
dead links are misused for merchandise ...

Sorry, but it is !!
At least, if you are able to use a text-editor.
A wiki is no harder, just try ! Press Edit.
There is some additional syntax, for beautification, but that's no
magic and well described:
http://www.dokuwiki.org/syntax
The wiki is so large, it's not even possible for a single person to maintain.
Since it is meant as a central place for all linux-audio interested, I would
assume that project members updated their respective sections themselves.
Helpful for propagation and attraction of new users.
Everyone - keep up-to-date the sections you are interested in.
Everyone - enjoy up-to-date material :)

Don't worry, if I should see a dead link and Google will find a valid

I get your point, we have no time. Developers are best kept coding ;-)
But even single-person projects have users, that can help - unless you
don't make it public,
which is where this wiki could help. I'm not talking about countless
hours of editing.
I'm talking about 10 minutes every few months, updating a link,
version and description.
If you would like your project get known, this is an investment that
pays off, IMHO.

Almost every page on wiki.linuxaudio.org is editable by everyone. But
without a login (valid email address or OpenID) there is a CAPTCHA.
The current default look&feel has an "edit this page" link on top of
every page (similar to wikipedia) and an "edit" button for each section
(sub-heading) of every page.
have fun,
