=== Guidelines for mail gathering and bi-weekly processing ===
This is intended to be a procedure on how to create the bi-weekly newsletter, so that multiple people are able to do it, in case others are away.

The news is gathered on a weekly basis.
Sources for news are various. We know the following:
* [irc://irc.netlabs.org/#netlabs #netlabs] channel, just connect and see what comes by
* http://news.netlabs.org/
* various SVN timelines for the projects that are already in SVN (needs to be listed explicitly?)

There is a mail id on netlabs for mailing out the newsletter to various contacts.
The mail id is: news at netlabs dot org
It uses the following IMAP mailserver: mail dot netlabs dot org

For the start of a new newsletter a copy from the previous one can be made and then copy the new news into it, to make life easy :-)
The easiest way to get the text is grabbing it from the webpage in normal view mode.
Check the text a second time, and align it a bit.
Address it with BCC to the following addresses:
* martin at os2world dot com
* stevew at jafar dot hartnell dot edu
* submit at os2voice dot org
* webmaster at ecomstation dot com
* webredactie at os2-gg dot nl
* ktk at netlabs dot org
* j dot van dot der dot heide at hccnet dot nl
* os2info at gmx dot net

Don't forget the subject line with the next number and of it goes.

After the newsletter is sent the 'Netlabs bi-weekly newsletter' webpage has to be updated. (http://wiki.netlabs.org/index.php/Netlabs_bi_weekly_newsletter). Just copy the news on top of the others and add a heading.

Then the draft version of the bi-weekly page can be emptied and the heading for the next week can be added.

That is basicly the process of the bi-weekly newsletter.

=== Lunch ===

During the 2 days of the workshop we arranged a lunch buffet, to be payed at the location, it will be around 12,- Euro excluding bevarages.

== Workshop Location ==

This years edition will be held in the beautiful and famous city of Amsterdam in Holland.
I won't comment on some of the more well known attractions of this city, but if you have the time, I would advise you to at least spent a day there, when you are in Holland anyway!

The event location will be:
Cultural center Griffioen of the VU Amsterdam.
It is related to the VU university of Amsterdam, the seat of Dr. Andrew Tannebaum.

It is located at the border of Amsterdam and Amstelveen, but it is very easy to reach from the city center.
http://www.vu.nl/Organisatie/index.cfm/home_subsection.cfm/subsectionid/9DB86C70-F9C7-4704-8C9D9ED46EEDB063

=== Accomodation ===
Please do not wait too long before booking a hotel or hostel, Amsterdam is still a tourist magnet!

For a cheap, but good quality, hostel look at: 
http://www.stayokay.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=Herbergen.showHomeHB&lng=2&id=3

This one is located on the edge of the city center, and close to the stops of tram line 5.

If you travel by car, the following hotel may be of interest to you, the Bastion Hotel Amsterdam/Centrum-Zuidwest: 
http://www.bastionhotels.nl/en/ourhotels/amsterdamzuidwest/

If you are looking for another hotel or hostel, being close to tram line 5 or 51 makes traveling to the location very easy !

=== How to reach the workshop ===

'''By train:'''

The event is close to station 'Amsterdam - Zuid'. If you travel with an international train you need to transfer at 'Amsterdam Duivendrecht', there are 2 direct trams from 'Amsterdam - Centraal', line 5 and 51.

'''By plane:'''

Travel to 'Amsterdam Airport Schiphol' there is an enormous amount of airlines flying there. So it should be possible to get there at a reasonable price. The airport is one stop away with the train. Be sure '''NOT''' to travel into the direction of 'Amsterdam Centraal'

'''By car:'''

Although there is plenty of free parking space '''near''' the event, be aware that parking is '''expensive''' and that there are '''high fines''' on ''not'' paying if you stay in the city of Amsterdam !!.
From all directions: travel to the 'Ring A10' and take exit 'VU Hospital'. More precise directions will follow soon.

UniAudio Development

2007-02-19T13:58:14Z

Diver: Milestones without priority

This document is used to collect ideas about what has to change to start with UniAudio development again. This is by no means a complete document, so please help to finish it!

=== How to improve development ===
* Always try to make the audio hardware available to the developer or have a tester you can trust
** Usually, it does not cost that much to purchase a sound card
*** Especially compared to the actual money that was spend on the developer!
** If the card is not onboard, we should try to make it available to the developer
** If not, we have to find a tester that helps the developer
** If there is no tester, and the developer has no hardware, than we should not work on that
* Create a document that describes in '''full detail what''' a tester has to do and '''how'''
** There are various ways in which UniAudio outputs usefull information, those have to be listed and explained
* Record user and tester reports in an "experience database" so the developer(s) can relate changes to effects more easily--also at later points for previous versions
* We need clear milestones
* Have a test plan for '''every''' major release
** This can only work if we have a number of testers for UniAudio
** It would be nice to have a list of "tested" vs. "untested" hardware, not just a list of what should work
*** It would be beneficial to have a database where the hardware can be listed and a set of tests defined, this would help take care of the plan for testing as well as the list of "tested" vs. "untested" hardware. Then the testers can mark the tests they have performed (I have never tried to record on this machine for instance and don't have a mic but could sign off on other tests).
* Standardize the build environment with the help of Christian Langanke
* Make it easier for testers and users to find appropriate versions
** Follow a strict version numbering scheme
** Record changes, preferably in "non-developer speak"
* Document the Uniaud API so other developers can put it to use
* have more then one developer on the project (less dependency, multiple eyes on the same problems, fall back, knowledge exchange)

=== Suggestions for Milestones ===
* building a new release from the actual svn repository
* closing all old bugreports (noone knows the status of the old bugs)
* applying ALSA patches to be in sync
* test HDA support
* test APM support (including APM in ACPI)

=== How to raise money ===
* still empty

=== Guidelines for mail gathering and bi-weekly processing ===
This is intended to be a procedure on how to create the bi-weekly newsletter, so that multiple people are able to do it, in case others are away.

The news is gathered on a weekly basis.
Sources for news are various. We know the following:
* [irc://irc.netlabs.org/#netlabs #netlabs] channel, just connect and see what comes by
* http://news.netlabs.org/
* various SVN timelines for the projects that are already in SVN (needs to be listed explicitly?)

There is a mail id on netlabs for mailing out the newsletter to various contacts.
The mail id is: news at netlabs dot org
It uses the following IMAP mailserver: mail dot netlabs dot org

For the start of a new newsletter a copy from the previous one can be made and then copy the new news into it, to make life easy :-)
The easiest way to get the text is grabbing it from the webpage in normal view mode.
Check the text a second time, and align it a bit.
Address it with BCC to the following addresses:
* martin at os2world dot com
* stevew at jafar dot hartnell dot edu
* submit at os2voice dot org
* webmaster at ecomstation dot com
* webredactie at os2-gg dot nl
* ktk at netlabs dot org
* j dot van dot der dot heide at hccnet dot nl
* os2info at gmx dot net

Don't forget the subject line with the next number and of it goes.
