Hi:
4.) Correct me if I misunderstand, but it seems the biggest advantage
of the
Guide on the live media is not having to download the tutorial files. That makes
sense, but the largest set of files--and the only set I want to keep in the long
term--is for Ardour. They're copyrighted with CC-NC-SA, so we can't upload them
to an official Fedora Project server (currently they're on Soundcloud). If the
point is actually to have the documentation on the live media, we could craft a
"no-media-files" branch to reduce the space it would take.
Actually I was thinking that it would be handy to have the reference
available if you didn't have connectivity. If you're in the middle of
a field somewhere and you want to check something on the setup for
example. This is perhaps a more likely scenario for the Jam spin than
the electronics or robotics spins for example.
PLUG:
If anybody is willing to volunteer an hour or two, to help point out exactly
what needs to be updated in the Guide and how, I'd greatly appreciate it!
List of Potential Changes:
- the LilyPond chapter uses Frescobaldi 1.x
- Qtractor has been updated significantly
- the "real time" portion could use a rewrite
- will we get supercollider into the Fedora repository?
- all the NEW or ASSIGNED bugs on Bugzilla[0]
Unfortunately I don't really use any of those packages, but I could
take a stab at some of the bugzillas, particularly copy editing or
Jack setup. Is there a timeline they'd be needed for?
