We could have a documentation sprint at the next PdCon. I think we should have something like a 5 hour session where we just sit and work on documentation. We are also trying to organize a FLOSSmanuals Pd book sprint, probably NYC, but also other locations as well.

The other idea involves making the more advanced features like GLSL and framebuffer rendering easier to use. These are mainly documentation projects, but also have some Pd, and possible C++ coding as well. <br> </div><br></blockquote></blockquote></div></div><br> <br>_______________________________________________<br> <a href="mailto:Pd-list@iem.at">Pd-list@iem.at</a> mailing list<br> UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management -> <a href="http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list" target="_blank">http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list</a><br> <br></blockquote></div><br><br clear="all"><br>-- <br>-----<br>------------<br> ---- -----<br>---- -------- - ------<br><a href="http://perhapsidid.wordpress.com">http://perhapsidid.wordpress.com</a><br><a href="http://myspace.com/kyleklipowicz">http://myspace.com/kyleklipowicz</a><br> _______________________________________________<br><a href="mailto:Pd-list@iem.at">Pd-list@iem.at</a> mailing list<br>UNSUBSCRIBE and account-management -> <a href="http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list">http://lists.puredata.info/listinfo/pd-list</a><br></blockquote></div><br><div> <span class="Apple-style-span" style="border-collapse: separate; border-spacing: 0px 0px; color: rgb(0, 0, 0); font-family: Helvetica; font-size: 12px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-align: auto; -khtml-text-decorations-in-effect: none; text-indent: 0px; -apple-text-size-adjust: auto; text-transform: none; orphans: 2; white-space: normal; widows: 2; word-spacing: 0px; "><div style="word-wrap: break-word; -khtml-nbsp-mode: space; -khtml-line-break: after-white-space; "><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><div><br class="khtml-block-placeholder"></div><div>----------------------------------------------------------------------------</div><div><br class="khtml-block-placeholder"></div><div>Mistrust authority - promote decentralization. - the hacker ethic</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"></div></span> </div><br></body></html>
