Welcome, Justin! I've added you to our FAS group.

Justin's been hanging around (as "threethirty") on #fedora-mktg for the 
past few weeks, so if you're around say hello.

Ooo. We could probably use a podcasting content champion.

I wonder if you have any knowledge about the work flow in a broadcast
radio station.

In the last two month I have been asked four of five time regarding
software to run a broadcast radio station. Having some king of
documentation giving some ideas of how fedora can solve this can be
helpful. Depending on how is written can be a idea discussed posted on
your blog (hopefully linked to the planet!); it may also be a nice
manual in the wiki for documentation; it can even be a start up for a
SIG.

Maybe it is just a wishful thinking, because I will like to have a
good place where to point those people asking me. Better if that is a
blue place full of "F" letters.

best regards

The station I was at was a community station
http://www.pacificanetwork.org/radio/content/view/47/63/ so we barley
had the budget to have basics :)  I was doing a classic rock show as
part of my vocational telecom cert in High School.  Most of the stuff I
was playing was on LP's. 

I honestly couldn't tell you how the commercial stations are doing it or
how WECI is operating now.  From what I understand most commercial
stations are running a master playlist from the main office and a local
does news/traffic/weather on cue and it goes right back to the playlist

Neville -
You should take a look at Project Rivendell - it was developed by a
small radio station conglomerate. While I haven't used it personally,
I know one or two broadcast engineers who really like it. It's GPLed -
which is of course fantastic.
