John;
good- in the interest of avoiding problems, it might be good to put an explicit version number, or a number that the version has to be greater than.
1.2.1.3 is the current one. Seems a easy choice for me?
Errors/warnings and eventual crashes seem perfectly fine to me.
the only thing i'd suggest is that the entry is posted to this mailing list sometime before a certain date [or maybe 'tweeted' to a certain account] ...
I'm not sure to what degree Twitter tags like "#chuckage" or "@John" would go at the expense of characters or how sc dealt with that.
and i don't know about web space or whatever. if you wanted to make this a join chuck/microsound project [and everyone was on board] we might be able to host it on the microsound site [which is all set up already]. i'm not saying this is a particularly good or bad idea, but just offering it as a possibility.
We have web-space at the forum at the EM site. EM has servers for files that are on a very big connection in Norway. Princeton and Stanford also have webspace that we might be able to use. I don't think any of those would even blink at the kind of space and bandwith this is likely to take.
there will be some work involved with gathering up the entries, and putting them on the web, but that's later.
Indeed. There may be questions there, like to what degree a flash-based player is suitable to present the output of a FOSS project and what alternatives there are. As this would be great advertising for ChucK I think we should consider both a convenient pre-rendered format as well as easy access to the sources. again, i think this is a great idea- nice work!!
I hardly did a thing, really. It's good to see so much enthousiasm already.
Kas.
