I've only just got round to listening to the podcast, sounds good from
what I heard (about 20 minutes worth before accidentally pressing the
skip back button on my mobile rather than holding it down - I dunno this
new fangled technology it wouldn't do that with tapes).
I wonder actually, I know it's probably a pain to split the podcast into
sections, but would it be possible to maybe include a table of contents
with the time position for each section?
If it is possible then those of us who would be interested in splitting
the podcast into smaller bitesize chunks can do so (either with Audacity
or I guess we could bodge together a simple script to split the audio at
certain times).
That was a bit of bad news about your Ubuntu mirror too Al, who'd have
thought a factory reset would reformat your drives. You'd have thought
it would be possible to do that afterwards through a web interface or
whatever.
