Wired: Pro-Level, GPL'd Audio Editing For Linux

Sven Hertz writes "For all us music professionals who were longing to a promising music production and creation software on Linux, there is now Wired (screenshots). It supports unlimited Audio/Midi tracks playback and recording, and introduces a Plugin system for instruments and effects (VST support under way too). It can also read AKAI CDs and import 18 different Wave formats. The first test version was released a few days ago and its news made the rounds successfully on OSNews & GnomeDesktop while it was placed "app of the week" over at GnomeFiles."

    GNAA announces plans to bomb Christmas island GNAA announces plans to bomb Christmas island
    by GNAA Staff
    Due to recent AUP policy changes at .cx NIC, one of the key GNAA sponsored websites, http://goatse.cx has been found "in violation of .cx AUP policies". This announcement delivered a huge blow to the GNAA organization.
    Without goatse.cx, we lose an important piece of GNAA.
    "We will not let this happen", GNAA representative goat-see said to the press. "GNAA will begin planning a terrorist attack on the Christmas Islands."
    GNAA currently operates a back-up site, also located at the .cx TLD, http://goat.cx. Users are welcome to use this website while we try to persuade .cx NIC to reinstate goatse.cx domain.
    "In the event that our peaceful negotiations will fail, Christmas islands are sure to be gone off the face of this planet", added another GNAA member, penisbird.

    If you would like to show support for goatse.cx domain, please visit the following links:
    Petition to reinstate goatse.cx (currently down due to attack)

    Thank you!


    excerpt from an irc log

    @b- The domain goatse.cx has been found in violation of .cx AUP policies, http://www.nic.cx/policies/pdf/cx.AUP.pdf #5, page 7, and is therefore suspended.
    @r- shit, that sucks
    *** joey (joey@brodels.gngsta.com) has joined nologin
    @s- yea i read, page 7 only talks about payment issues though
    @s- nothing about content
    @b- ya
    @b- im confused too
    @s- i dunno what the #5 means
    @s- oh i see
    @s- Communication publication or distribution of adult or obscene content
    @s- or images by way of embedded links in unsolicited email, postings to
    @s- news groups, internet forums, notices to instant messaging programs,
    @s- where the internet user is not explicitly made aware that by clicking on
    @s- the link they would be directly exposed to adult or obscene content.
    @b- hah
    @b- he'll have to make a splash page
    @s- i already put the lawyer warning on there
    @p- hah
    @b- that amendment to thier AUP
    @b- is like 100% goatse
    @s- - Over the years we have received numerous complaints of this domain's
    @s- - content, but no person filee an AUP violation form against the
    @s- - domain. Recently the .cx board met and revised all .cx policies (December
    @s- - 2003). One of the .cx policies that has not changed is that each domain
    @s- - holder is required to review the policies every thirty days and make sure
    @s- - their domain is in compliance (Please read part 1, page 2 of
    @s- - http://www.nic.cx/polici es/pdf/cx.registration.agreement.pdf).
    @s- -
    @s- - We do not review web sites and cannot ensure every domain holder is in
    @s- - compliance. But, if a domain is brought to our attention that fails to
    @s- - comply with our policies, we reserve the right to suspend the domain.
    @s- -
    @s- - I am unclear if you change the content, the suspension might be
    @s- - revoked. If you are considering this option, please send a note of inquiry
    @s- - to info@nic.cx.
    @s- -
    @s- - Best Wishes,

    KMail deps:

    • KDE Libs
      • aRts
      • Some X libs
      • Some graphics libs
      • libxml
      • Qt
    • KDE PIM libs
    • KDE Network libs
    • KDE Calendar lib
    • MIME Libs

    Evolution deps:

    • gtkhtml
    • bonobo
    • atk
    • gail
    • glade
    • GNOME libs
      • GNOME VFS
      • TASN
      • separate custom ops lib
      • GNOME UI
      • GTK
      • ORBit
      • GConf
      • pango
    • GNU TLS
    • the NSPR (?!)
