Taps Release

NOW

• we start documenting things as much as possible, including screenshots, brief videos, audio examples, and didactic um sampleprojects. Obviously having good documentation is essential.
• post link to mailing list (when it's ready, probably tomorrow)
• after we hear back from SIGGRAPH and ICMC, we post the pdf (probably pending acceptance from SIGGRAPH)
• make examples, maybe dedicating a page for each, and also make a separate page to list the examples.
• MDH intends to make a classification interface in his ample spare time

MAY

• refactor the build tree (probably combine treesynth/ts/, v1/, and ui/)
• rename files add GPL headers
• keep fixing bugs
• finish defining and implementing the taps API in chuck
• might as well restructure the treesynth logistics somehow...
• start PR (post to the major lists: music-dsp, music-ir, etc.)
• internal release, with presentation to woolworth dwellers

SUMMER

• code cleanup, refactor if beneficial for long time
• keep adding features, especially those on research agenda
• keep working with composers to get them irrevocably addicted

SOMETIME BEFORE ICMC

• release 1.0!!!
• make a video tutorial
• massive PR (music-dsp, music-ir, linux-audio-*, microsound, and other experimental music lists, get the composers to help us publicize)

ICMC and beyond

• killer presentation and continue PR
• start supporting the user base, which should be giving us feedback to help improve the system/interface etc.
• give presentations in local region (NYU, Columbia, Penn, PSU, dorkbot)

• just the beginning!
