Whoops, I'll send a copy to debian-multimedia as well. Forgot to copy it on the first message.... > Hi, > > I've been casually glancing over linux-audio-user mailing list and > noticed that there's something called DSSI.

I did wonder about this initially but I'm not sure it's necessary. The only nice thing might be if there's a Provide: dssi-plugin, people could more easily search for plugins to use. I suspect that debtags would be a better method of doing this; maybe we could ask for a tag to be added (though I've no idea where in the hierarchy; we should ask Enrico). > 2. related packages packaged, such as whysynth, om. > Anyone packaged them yet? I'd welcome people packaging dssi plugins. I'd encourage them to ask to be added to the pkg-dssi group on alioth and do it in the svn repository there but of course this is just a recommendation; I'm aware that some people don't like group package maintenance. > 3. documenting basic information in multimedia policy. Any ideas what sort of information / text we should provide for this. Sorry about the delay in replying by the way.
