For example, are you saying that asking the LAU community to help out with promoting our new project is deplorable or that earning money by providing children with educational material built around classical music and fractal animations is disgusting or is it a political view about youtube in general? Or are you simply proposing that no one in the LAU community should make any money out of their art? BTW, I forgot to mention that I also try hard to maintain a relevant and active stream on the "linuxaudio" twitter account so it would be motivational to see something returned to me for this project. I've been promoting Linux Audio for almost 20 years. I'm just asking some of the people round here to visit the new youtube channel and help me with the SEO. If that is not acceptable then maybe you know someone with young kids who will appreciate the channel. So far we have had a lot of positive feedback from other parents and the material has been screen tested with children. If you have young children then you may even want them to watch the videos with you. It's not very often that something that is appropriate to share with your kids comes along on this list. -- Patrick Shirkey Boost Hardware Ltd _______________________________________________ Linux-audio-user mailing list Linux-audio-user@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://lists.linuxaudio.org/listinfo/linux-audio-user
