The AGNULA IST-Project [0] is proud, after two months of feedback from
our beta-testers and hacking, to officially announce the launch of the
"Libre Music" (aka "muzik") project:
One of the objectives of the AGNULA-IST project is help spreading
sensibility on the topics of Libre Software, with specific attention
paid to audio/video applications and content distribution. In order
to reach this goal, the AGNULA-IST project has set up a publicly
accessible database of Libre Music, i.e. musical works licensed under
either:
- the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike 1.0 license [1]
- the Creative Commons Attribution 1.0 license [2]
- the EFF Open Audio License 1.0.1 [3]
We are not going to compete with other, similar, efforts. On the
contrary, we would like to be complementary to other
projects/databases who are already working or are planning to work in
the same field.
If you want to contribute to our development effort, feel free to
subscribe [4] to our development portal [5] and ask either one of the
`muzik' project [6] administrators (Davide Fugazza [7] and Andrea
Glorioso [8]) to be added to the project - you will be able to use
our CVS, bug tracking and task manager tools.
If you, your company and/or your organization is interested in sharing
its archives of Libre Music by publishing it on AGNULA Libre Music
database and/or if you want further information, feel free to send
your questions, suggestions and/or criticisms to:
<users_AT_lists.agnula.org> [9]
for general discussion, and/or to:
<info_AT_agnula.org>
for general, info-line style questions on the AGNULA project.
