Anyone care to introduce themselves? Sure: my name is Fernando Lopez-Lezcano and I have been working here at CCRMA, Stanford University, since 1993[*]. I created and maintain Planet CCRMA, which is, just in case you don't know, a package collection that installs on top of Fedora Core (these days, the first versions - see the online changelogs - date back to 2001) and adds music and sound applications with a slant towards content creation. Planet CCRMA is a side effect of me maintaining a bunch of Linux workstations here at CCRMA, the environment we run (more or less) is what you can find in the repositories... I'll be glad to answer questions if you have any... Best. -- Fernando [*] sysadmin for the computer and network infrastructure, lecturer, and in my copious spare time, researcher and composer :-) http://ccrma.stanford.edu
