Improving Squeak's Mutlimedia

Hi Brad,

I'm interested.  I don't have a lot of time to do any major work, but I'll 
offer whatever I can.  I too have a lot of experience with embedded 
programming, and with sound and DSP (as it pays da bills for me as well, 
although my paying gig is doing DSP for telecom).  I've been dabbling with 
Smalltalk since about 1985 or so, but have not done any commercial 
Smalltalk work.  I'm sure we've "chatted" before about such things.

Anyway, count me in.

                -Dean

Is anyone interested in improving the multimedia facilities in Squeak?

I'm suggesting a group of interested parties get together and review 
potential improvements and enhancements to the audio/video functionality 
in Squeak. And then, really do something about it.

I'm not suggesting a formally structured group, but BOFs that want to help 
improve the current state. Maybe it's a loose-knit group, maybe it will 
have a primary contact to this dev-list or to the castways/SqF. I don't 
know, and I don't think that's important at this very moment.

I have _plenty_ of ideas for audio and I would like to gather all of those 
other audio people and video enthusiasts that would like to help put 
together a plan. Let me tell you upfront that I'm not a highly skilled 
smalltalk programmer. But, I am experienced in audio; both technically and 
from a composer and sound designer standpoint (that's what pays da 
bills.). And I have programmed for many years on (mostly) embedded 
products.

Perhaps a review of the current multimedia state is first at hand and then 
fixing what needs to be fixed. But I don't want to get ahead of myself 
before I hear if anyone else is interested.

I imagine there is less than a handful that would be interested. But, hey, 
I hope I'm wrong.

anyone?

brad
