Subject: Re: Where is the music made in Linux?

Ok, this sounds great.

Philip, let's talk it over.

I am ready to provide a net domain.

I bought limuxic.net. This is a name I was using with my kids at the school that I am teaching, to tell them that it's about music made in Linux. They loved it.

I can transfer this domain to you, if you want (unlock it etc).

Also, would you have enough space? If all goes good, you might need 5-10gb?

I can also set it up and give you admin rights, but I don't mind either ways.

also, I was thinking on putting this mp3 player: http://drupal.org/project/mp3player

One uploads a track and it turns into a player (doesn't work with ogg:-()

Or you have something better in mind?

when there are two or more people, this thing might actually work!

I've actually been thinking about creating a website exactly like what you're looking for. Would there be interest in this?

But I also thought about forums. a place where we can discuss production tricks and hints. Where we can discuss new (and old) software from a musician's point of view.
 
Yep, sounds like we're on the same track.

Or maybe unite the efforts? I was thinking on doing it on Drupal 6. I have a basic knowledge in that. What CMS were you thinking to use?

D6 is what I was going to use.

Setting this up in Drupal would be such a cinch, I think I might in the next few days just get the basic stuff working, put it on a subdomain on my hosting package and then if there's interest, I'll go and properly theme it all, etc.

Viktor, if I get it up I'll give you an admin account if you want as we seem to be on the same track.

Now, I can't find, don't know of any website that does all this yet. There's some old list-type sites, but nothing really user-driven and dynamic that has potential for forming a community. I think that's for one of two reasons:
1) Nobody's done it yet.
2) one or more sites like this DOES exist, but there really isn't an interest, hence why I can't find it.

Either way I think the only way to find out if there's interest is to actually set one up. For the small amount of effort it would take to do this in Drupal I think it's worth the risk.

And hey, I'm pretty interested in it, maybe it follows that many others probably are as well.
