Google Summer of Code 2007 Update
Google announced their decisions regarding this year's Summer of Code. The Ardour project has been awarded 2 projects, which are:
- MIDI editing
- by Dave Robillard, Carleton University, Ottawa (mentored by Paul Davis). Dave picked the short straw and will be working 27 hours a day to implement every item of MIDI editing functionality known to man.
- N.M panning
- by Christian Muise, Carleton University, Ottawa (mentored by Jesse Chappell). Christian will be working on adding back end support for more traditional multispeaker panning systems (like 5.1, 10.2 and so forth) along with a GUI to control it.
Google ended up awarding projects to just 900 students, of 3000+ applicants (and more than 6000 applications), so our two projects are a very positive outcome for us.
We welcome Dave back to paid summer work on Ardour, and offer a new welcome to Christian. Is it a coincidence that they are both at Carleton? Hard to say. Will it be useful to have two SoC students at the same institution? The summer will reveal all...

Congrats to both of the folks working on the projects, very much looking forward to both. I do hope consideration is given to the Ambisonics panning system that was discussed a little bit back on the Ardour list(Ardour-Users or Dev, I can't remember which).
Very much looking forward to the results, this will get me working exclusively with Ardour in Linux and one more reason to get rid of the KDE libs, not that Rosegarden is bad, just that I would rather work with ardour.

hey hey hey, i wish i could code too, but in this condition I am a lefty. But can't await to try it.
Ardour's recording capabilities are limited only by the hardware it is run on. There are no built in limitations in the software. When recording on top of existing material Ardour can do latency compensation, positioning the recorded material where it was intended to be when recording it.

The annual Google Summer of Code is upon us again. For the uninformed, that’s when Google pays hundreds of students and hundreds of mentors to work on free software projects, ranging from AbiSource to Zumastor. This is where great projects like the GDebiKDE installer were created. And this year looks even better than before, with 175 organizations and 1125 students. So today, I’m going to do a short rundown of some of my favorites. I can’t fit them all in (let’s save some trees!), but these are just some that stood out for me.
