Re: Summer Coding Project: Still Seeking Mentor

[Jeff Sandys <jpsandys@xxxxxxxxx>]

Christopher,
I think you have a great and needed project.  I would like to help you any way I 
can but don't feel qualified to be a mentor.  I gave a talk at Linuxfest Northwest 
about music programming with PlanetCCRMA that was well received, a full room 
for a Sunday session, so I believe there is a need for better documentation.

For many of the proposals installing PlanetCCRMA and their online pages are 
the answer.  Personally what I think is missing is an explanation of how to get 
started with the music programming environments like most of the programs 
listed on the Linux Audio Wiki: http://wiki.linuxaudio.org/wiki/tools_comparison

But you have a pretty good proposal that would fill a summer with work.  If you 
have drafts that you would like someone to read through or test let me know.  
I hope someone more qualified than myself will come forward as a mentor.  
Maybe you could get an announcement on Planet Linux Musician.

Thanks,
Jeff Sandys

Last week, I sent an introductory message, about the Fedora Summer
Coding project that I'm proposing.  The proposal is almost finished (see
it online at
https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Summer_Coding_2010_proposal_-_Fedora_Musicians%27_Guide),
but some serious work remains.

The most important part still remaining is that I need a mentor!  I
would really like to have somebody from Fedora and Planet CCRMA, because
of the opportunities it would allow.  This co-mentoring possibility has
been approved in principal by the Fedora Summer Coding SIG, and they
also recommend it for this particular proposal.
