I have done such kind of thing for the A/DeMuDi live cd (1.1.0). I have
to clean thinks etc... Unfortunatly, I ahve very few time now (if not no
time at all) to take up on this task. I think that we (however that
means) should start to work on the organisation of such a documentation
(which is the most important part IMO) and then organise the collection
of the docs wherever they are (provided they are Open/Free Content to be
distributable within A/DeMuDi). There is also some glue text to write to
put pack the whole thing together (I would keep this as small as
possible at the begining to allow an incrementale work: trying to start
to high could block the work (as it is for the Agnula book).
It doesn't have to be directly connected to A/DeMuDi but of course
documentation for software which are in A/DeMuDi is better. More
general documentation such as (out of my mind):
- Miller Puckette "Theory and Techniques of Electronic Music" (pd
centered)[-1] ( i am unsure of the license of this one)
- Davide Rocchesso "Introduction to Sound Processing" [1]
- Marco Sacco "Corso Audio Multimediale" (right now only in italian)
could also be some nice inclusions (speak out for more)
Also tutorials such as Dave one are also of great value.
Any volonteer to manage such a project?
cheers,
