Well, I may have misstated the actual "working rules." The original gathering in 2008 committed to Linux, so Open Source as a requirement may not be in effect this time around. > >> What were you planning to do? > > Instrumental electronica.

That's sounds like a worthy objective. It's not a working genre for me (I believe my heart lies most solidly within modal jamming), but I loved my Arp Odyssey when I'd just fire up sample and hold and mess with the envelope and the LFO, and let it do its thing while I attempted to layer on some coherent, scratch that and leave it at colorful, guitar work. In any event, as Drew notes, you don't need to commit to help us Packet-In. If you've got time and brain-space, check out the tracks as they are uploaded and if anything catches your fancy, contribute something and we'll add you to the attribution file (all our work's been CC by SA). Likewise feel free to play with a mix-down and offer it up for consideration - that was something where we really missed Peter last year, with him having done such a great job bringing our work alive in 2008. In any, any, event, have a great time with the challenge.
