Re: New packages / Fedora Audio

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.
