[Loopdub-devel] LoopDub repository moved to github

[Stephen S. <rad...@gm...>]

Hi,

There hasn't been any activity on loopdub in ages for various reasons, but:

I just recently moved the repository to github.  Previously I was
hosting the git repository by dumb http on the sourceforge website, so
I thought it might make collaboration easier by using github.
Sourceforge has recently added proper git support, and I may clone the
"official" repository there one day, but github makes forking and
collaboration very easy so it is a good solution until I feel like
dealing with SF again.  Fortunately the use of git makes moving things
around like this really easy.

This was spurred by some contributed patches by Nick Seow, who
ultimately wants to figure out why the display update code seems to
cause audio glitches.  His patches so far have been to try and fix
some memory handing issues in the code.  The patches are not yet
merged into master, but are available in a branch called "nick".

On my part, I'm suggesting we properly separate the display and audio
engines into different process that use OSC to communicate.  As
usually I don't have much (any) time to work on LoopDub, but I'm happy
to merge people's patches and hopefully github will make this easier.
