First off, i'm the slack bus-hit someone that didn't complete the
gallery (ie. the exhibition) section mentioned.
I have been meaning to get back about it, but decided to not do it
till i had more solid things to offer then ideas. Well, now i'll have
to push in the ideas without the solid stuff. I'll be brief and leave
out (most of) my reasons:
* I think the exhibition section should be discarded. It has in parts
been replaced by a goto10 project (that reach much wider in scope
though) and more importantly - to put it diplomatically - the
publishing scheme is not compatible with the target community.
* There should instead be made weblog sync point for Pd related
weblogs posts รก la ProcessingBlogs. It should be simple to manage:
Anyone wanting their Pd related weblogs posts to be in the common
feed should supply a feed url with a "tag" for the Pd related posts
in their feed. Either to a person doing the management (could be done
in turns) or if possible through the IEM/Pd.info/plone-setup thing.
* Also there should be a concise wiki page with examples of what
could be done with Pd. People writing that would want to suppress
there ego for a second and think about what newcomers would most-
likely want to see when looking into what Pd is by what can be done
in Pd. Also therefore it shouldn't seek all the outer limits but
include stuff like a simple algo-composing and loop-sampler example.
