Some notes from a cool meeting at RH today
by Greg DeKoenigsberg 30 Jun '06

30 Jun '06

Had a good chat with Adrian Likins, Steven Salevan and Luke Macken today about what a "music collaboration server" might look like. Here's a whole firehose full of notes. To Adrian/Steven/Luke, this'll probably mean more -- but any questions, feel free to ask. :) We're getting together again here in Red Hat HQ to brainstorm more about possible clients on Thursday. For those of you on the list who aren't from around here, apologies, and we'll start filling in gaps soon. --g ======================================================================= The Four Steps -------------- 1. EXPORT TOOLS AND RULES. Figure out how to get output from every major music production tool into a simple, common format. If it's tools that plug in to GarageBand/Steinberg/Logic, great. If it's a 20-step HOWTO for each of those tools, great. The end result: wav/midi files, per track, that can be easily shared. 2. DEFINE COMMON METADATA FORMAT. Rough database schema follows. 3. REPOSITORY FOR METADATA. Ditto. 4. UPLOAD TOOLS. We need some simple way of getting "sharable" data into the system initially. The WAG at Schema ----------------- user email varchar password varchar asset (a superclass, subclassed per asset type) id varchar (md5sum) creator_id fk (user.email) license_id fk (license table) uri varchar creation_date date music_asset (a subclass of asset, we thus leave the possibility of video/clipart/etc.) asset_id fk (asset.id) lyric_id fk (lyric.id) (nullable) type? (midi/wav/loop/etc?) key? varchar? tempo? varchar? bpm? int? others? lyric id varchar (md5sum) author fk (user.email) authored_date date song id varchar (md5sum) producer_id fk (user.email) uri varchar production_date date song_tracks song_id fk (song.id) track_id fk (music_asset.asset_id) track_parent track_id fk (music_asset.asset_id) parent_id fk (music_asset.asset_id) Other stuff: tagging schema for songs and tracks --g ------------------------------------------------------------- Greg DeKoenigsberg || Fedora Project || fedoraproject.org Be an Ambassador || http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Ambassadors -------------------------------------------------------------

Is the Core 5 x86_64 repository broken?
by David Nielson 08 Jun '06

08 Jun '06

1. Fresh install of Fedora Core 5 x86_64 on a fancy new AMD X2 3800+. 2. su - (and enter the password to obtain the mythical root superpowers) 3. rpm --import http://ccrma.stanford.edu/planetccrma/RPM-GPG-KEY.planetccrma.txt 4. rpm -Uvh http://ccrma.stanford.edu/planetccrma/mirror/fedora/linux/planetccrma/5/i38… No errors so far. Everybody's happy. But this serenity will not last for long... 5. yum check-update Yum bails with a 404, followed by [errno 256 - no more mirrors to try] or something similar. The GUI package manager (pirut?) fails to load now as well. Grr. -David

https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=191239 Final comment says: > Looks good. I can't give final approval, but this is approve-able in > my opinion. Someone please sponsor Fernando, we need him. :) So.... where do I go from here? I have other packages I'd like to submit as well (and qsynth[*] is waiting and has had no comments so far - I doubt it is a perfect package! :-) Qjackctl is really needed if you want to actually use the recently released jack package in Extras. -- Fernando [*] https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=191538
