Hello everyone, (my apologies for cross-posting)

We'll be holding an Office hour for Flow on IRC, this Monday at 19:30

You can find information on how to get online, including a link to a

onwiki.[3][4]
Everyone is welcome for discussions and question answering. Logs will
be posted on the meta office hour page afterwards.

Thanks,

[Wikimedia-l] Open Well-Tempered Clavier

2015-03-20 Thread Amir E. Aharoni
Hi,

Plenty of things like this happen in the Wikimedia world every day, but as
a music lover I'm especially happy about this one: The Open Well-Tempered
Clavier project was completed yesterday with the public domain release of
all the music files, and it's already on Commons:
https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Category:Open_Well-Tempered_Clavier

In case you didn't know, The Well-Tempered Clavier by Johann Sebastian Bach
is one of the most popular and influential works of European classical
music. The Open Well-Tempered Clavier is a project to record a complete
performance of this work and release the music files, as well as proofread
digital sheet music, to the public domain. It was crowd-funded through
Kickstarter.

The Well-Tempered Clavier is kinda like the Dark Side of the Moon of
classical music - if you listen to classical music, you likely own a
recording of it already, but since we are free culture geeks here, I'm sure
that you'll appreciate having this copy, too.

It's public domain, so download, listen and share as much as you wish, but
you may also want to show your support to the people behind this project by
downloading and naming your price through Bandcamp or purchasing a CD:
http://welltemperedclavier.org/

My personal thanks to the people who develop Pywikibot, thanks to which
uploading 48 huge files to Commons was easy (and indeed, possible - one of
them is over 100MB).

(Also, tomorrow is Bach's birthday according to the Julian calendar.)
