Mind you, the actual value might change at any time, and could be updated when so. For example, 'now' that estimation might be 'before the end of 2009', but in 3months time it might be 'by the end of this year'....it's a mobile target. There's a small typo here and there on the download page, there's a few more likewise on other pages which I've caught on the 3rd pass.

To explain.... I am (have long time been) a member of jazzplusplus-user , however you spend most of your time on jazzplusplus-devel ....of which I am not a member. I figured...(see one of my previous prattlings)...that this website documentation discussion was more fodder for this list than it was relevant to the developers list.

I'm assuming you're a member of both lists? All I can think of right now, goes something like this....you are one of the project leaders, and as such you will always retain right of veto in moderation of list(s) content. In many ways you are ideally placed to decide what content of one list, should find it's topical way onto another list for cross-discussion debate. Likewise, if I raise a discussion here and think it should be flagged for the devel list as well, I will make that abundantly clear to you and you can decide from there whether any 'cross pollination' takes place. Sound reasonable? Else, I could join the devel list as well...however that might neglect content here, or lead to (possibly disparate) duplication of threads on both lists. That would be confusing....(like it was on the posting above where I forgot to CC the list) Take it as read though, if you feel any of my postings here should be also read by devel-list members, just go ahead and forward to the devel-list as you see appropriate -- a CC to my email address at the time of you doing this would be enough to let me know what has happened and gives me a heads-up that some question/comments (about that content) might be headed my way. This works for me.. Whatever works for *you* is possibly more important - let me know. By the time you awake, we should be back in sync and on the same page.

That's where I'll discuss the details of the documentation build system, idiosyncrasies of the various ports,... and this information could be used as for the start of some documentation or identify the need for some documentation.

Greetings, Pete, I've just come from reading your last posting on devel-list This lot will hopefully get us up to date.... 1. I'm posting this to jazzplusplus-user with CC to yourself. If you already receive copies of jazzplusplus-user mail, let me know and I'll drop the CC. This will keep threads alive here. 2. I'll track devel from the online archive -this will avoid list 'pollution' 3. A subversion repository of the documentation is certainly the way to go -- it keeps efforts centered around a common toolset. I can then keep my local tree synced and easily diff' out patches. I'm supposing I should submit patches to yourself. The commit should get noticed in jazzplusplus-devel to invite any input there. Once any patches are approved and applied to the svn repo, I'll announce same here in jazzplusplus-user, so folks know there's something new to checkout (on the website or in the code), thusly inviting folks to comment on this list as well. Let me know the svn particulars once you get that end sorted, and I'll then do the same here, sanity check it etc...and we all should be happy.. Well...I hope so anyhow. 4. The question about 'which linux distro do I use' seems to have been left hanging somehow...I was fairly sure I answered that one. Not to worry....I've been personally building & using my own 'hand rolled' linux systems ever since I read 'The Bash to boot prompt howto' and concluding that (quote) "it looked like a fun thing to do". ...and that must've been nearly a decade ago - how time flies... There's also a couple of Debian 4.0 boxes here that I look after for other house members. I can rattle together deb packages in both 32 and 64 bit flavors if need be...whenever that time comes of course....

Thanks for starting to work on getting the doc's in good shape. I agree with trying to put a good foot forward for Linux, jazz++ and all. I have a MIDI hardware synth, if you eventually want me to test something. Cheers.... -- Kevin |

IIRC he was interested in > packaging and distribution; if I can ever get anything ready to distribute. I've been using Mandriva over here. I package everything for that. It's an RPM based distribution, which means that my packaging can be a great headstart for any other RPM based system, e.g. Red Hat & SuSE. Debian based systems are another story. I've never built any packages for those. Cheers.... -- Kevin |
