Hi:
One package that I use almost every day is "frescobaldi". It was included
until Fedora 15, is unmaintained in f16, and has a new upstream release coming
soon. The previous maintainer gave us plenty of notice that he would be
orphaning the package, and I thought I would be able to pick it up myself, but
it's just not feasible for me in the near future. For my own use, it's easy
enough to download the Python sources and run it locally... but to have it
back in the official repository would be a definite plus for those of us who
can't. It's also in the "Musicians' Guide."
If that doesn't interest you, there's the "supercollider" set of
packages,
currently available in PlanetCCRMA@Home, that I feel would be great to have in
the "real" Fedora repositories.
Maybe we could encourage somebody (a university student) to register for the
Fedora Summer Coding program, which would give them three months of dedicated
time to, basically, work on an audio spin and nothing else. This would fit
better into the "Fedora 18" timeline.
Christopher.

Hi all,
I have recently gone through the pain of relocating countries, setting
up new workstations etc. and would love to have all the packages I use
sitting in Fedora. As a result I've packaged a few things which I use
What is the status of the Fedora Audio SIG? After going through this
myself I am keen to resurrect the idea of a Fedora Studio. We could even
make it a feature of Fedora 17.
We would probably need to coordinate from planetccrma what desperately
needs to be in mainline Fedora and any other packages which are missing.
If there is anything you would like packaged which is not let me know.
In the meantime there is a new packages that have hit Fedora 16 (at
.least) in the last month or so.
zita-at1 - Fons' auto-tuner
zita-rev1 - Reverb from Fons
phat - GTK toolkit for audio software, was in planetccrma, depandancy of
specimen. New project coming soon to Fedora petri-foo, which
replaces/inherits specimen (currently FTBS in planet)
clxclient - dependancy of zita*, previously in planetccrma*
I also have a couple of lv2 plugins awaiting review here [1].
Also thinking of packaging Neil, although this will probably need to
reside in rpmfusion
regards,
Brendan
