LKML Summary Podcast

Jon Masters writes "I've started recording a daily summary podcast of Linux Kernel Mailing List (LKML) traffic. It's in MP3 format (for the benefit of car stereos, including my empeg, and iPhone/iPod users) with an Ogg Vorbis format version to follow next week, and text versions of the script I read from will be available too for those who want to help with translation — or just prefer not listening to audio. It's an experiment at this stage and may not continue to be daily in the longer term unless I can build a team of willing volunteers to help find items worth including from the day's traffic, write the daily script, record it, and so forth. But it's proving to be a useful exercise in forcing myself to be up to date with LKML. I've had around 5,000 downloads in a first several days, and a lot of positive feedback, so I think this is filling a void and may prove to be useful. If you'd like to help get involved drop me a line at kernel-podcast@jonmasters.org, or tweet @kernelpodcast."

Re:Whatever happened to kernel trap?

I really enjoyed that site. Especially the flame wars. Now I have to go out and start my own flamewars to get my fix.

Like you'd know anything about kernel development, anyway.

Tell you what, after your mommy finishes changing your diaper, why don't you visit a grown-up discussion site where the real adults can figure out the answers to serious problems?

Idiot.

[did that help? I like to help out a brother who's jonesing for a fix o' flamewar.]
