Btw. there's Linux software available for "Moonbounce or Earth-Moon-Earth (EME) is a way of communicating by reflecting radio signals from the Moon between two suitably equipped stations." - http://www.amateur-radio-wiki.net/index.php?title=Moonbounce_%28EME%29_Scheduling_%28Sked%29_and_tracking_software The radio link also mentions Marble. IMO Marble could be used to describe the difference between Linux for special tasks and what's expected by averaged users. The idea of Marbel is very good, an enthusiasts will appreciate Marbel. A user that expects an alternative to Street View in Google Earth unlikely will use Marbel as a replacement. IMO this is applicable for Linux audio compared to Non-Linux audio alternatives. Perhaps the target group for PR and what is provided by Ubuntu Studio should be enthusiasts and not the averaged computer user. -- ubuntu-studio-devel mailing list ubuntu-studio-devel@lists.ubuntu.com Modify settings or unsubscribe at: https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-studio-devel
