This is a good idea but it will quickly eat up hard drive space and
bandwidth. I can volunteer both from two different servers if needed.

Not so sure about the subversion support though. I'm interested in ideas
for how to split the load efficiently.

An social network for music creation will definitely be good for
promoting Linux audio and open source software. Please keep us informed
of the progress as this could be a very powerful idea if it is managed
well.

I can see a roll for the consortium in this project but we will need a
way to make it pay for itself if it does get some momentum as the costs
will be pretty massive on a large scale.

Maybe we should be distributing via bittorrent like eletricsheep
http://electricsheep.org

Why make the server handle all the load when it can be a simple database
engine instead.






Cheers.
