Probably will do parallel Pd FLOSS Manual sprint in Berlin at same time as NYC one. Early to mid-April? Will post more on this later when I have a chance to draw up some outline for this.
best! Derek

Yes, that is good. We could have a documentation sprint at the next PdCon. I think we should have something like a 5 hour session where we just sit and work on documentation. We are also trying to organize a FLOSSmanuals Pd book sprint, probably NYC, but also other locations as well. The more the merrier!

True that! I would be way more useful writing documentation than code. If there was an opportunity like GSoC for that, I'd jump on it.

But go for it with the GLSL/framebuffer coding stuff! That is really a shame since most open source projects need way more documentation done than coding. Maybe they will have a Winter of Docs? chris clepper wrote: My own suggestion for a GEM project would be to create a tutorial and accompanying manual that covers the basic operation. The other idea involves making the more advanced features like GLSL and framebuffer rendering easier to use. These are mainly documentation projects, but also have some Pd, and possible C++ coding as well.
