Hi all.<br><br>In #ubuntustudio today somebody asked if we should add LMMS to it. <br><br>I agree we need to since it is a crucial part of the system and it takes only about 10 MB of disk space so...<br><br>BTW I talked to Nicholas Skaggs and the final decision was to dump the manual partitioning and auto-resize testcases and only remain the entire disk one along with live session and the forecoming post-installation testcases.<br>
<br>Thanks everybody<br><br>Regards,<br>Howard Chan (smartboyhw)<br>

<br></blockquote></div><br><div>I think characterizing this as "a crucial part of the system" might be misrepresenting LMMS as I think Ubuntu Studio is quite functional in numerous use cases.</div><div><br></div>
<div>We should also consider how many people are asking for LMMS. If we included every application asked for, we would easily oversize the 4gig image. I have been worried about making everyone download extra megs (oh, won't someone think of the bandwidth) because one person said we should include something.</div>
<div><br></div><div>However, I am not opposed to including it. I just want to make sure we evaluate the inclusion on it's own merits, that we are supported a complete work flow (i.e. there are no other applications needed to support getting the task done), and the user demand warrants inclusion.</div>
<div><br></div><div>I look forward to other's input.</div><div><br></div><div>ScottL</div>

In my experience there are FL Studio people, and then there is the other kind.</div><div>Don't use it myself, but I definitely think it fills a workflow hole for a good portion of people.</div></body></html>
