[jazzplusplus-devel] Question about external link references

[D.B. M. <db...@ho...>]

Greetings,

               As I scour the 'net looking for pertinent documentation
resources, I'm coming across references to jazz++ that point back
to the old jazzware website. This is unfortunate - quip;

Unable to determine IP address from host name for www.jazzware.com

One such document, is the 'Linux MIDI HowTo' but there are others.

My question is, do we wish to email such documents' authors, kindly
requesting them to update their links?? I primarily ask this because
of jazz++'s early development stage..ie; if there were fully functional
tarballs available of any kind for jazz++ now, I wouldn't ask - I'd just
send the emails to the authors concerned and report that action here.

Let me know, as it's fairly easy (and convenient) for me to include 
such tasks in my current activities here....


Regards,

Donald B

Your email to them could

1. indicate we are in the early stages of reviving Jazz++
2. point to the new web site
3. point out that the keepers of the old site blessed this project
4. mention the link on their site is broken so they should either remove 
it or update it to point to our project.

Sounds like a plan....I'll sent about wording that up soon..

At this stage of the project's development, I thought it
prudent -not- to 'open too many gates' on the 'net right now.
I did however spend a time finding old link references out
there, and I've tossed them  into my bookmarks to remind
me of something todo when Jazz++ gets nearer a release date.

I did leave one gate ajar behind me....I updated a wiki, see ;

 http://apps.linuxaudio.org/apps/all/jazz

That sort of minimalistic update is what I call 'the short cast
with a very light line and a tiny hook' ;-)

I can't even keep up with all of your posts and the good work you are 
doing.  I put in 12 hrs. at work yesterday.  Frustrating, but I love my 
job too.  Just not enough time in the day.

Perfect.

Please, never feel obliged nor pressured to keep up with all my posts.
I'm sure you don't - I'm just making that clear. As I mentioned in a 
previous email, I do have an inordinate amount of free time at present,
and I'm obviously taking advantage of that fact here to the best of
my ability. I try not to get frustrated about anything and typically
don't - politicians and world leaders frustrate the %*&% out of me
though, regardless of how much I try to ignore frustration....

For the record, I expect my postings to be touched on (by others)
...(or not ;)....in 'the near future' ..and that could be two weeks from now.
