[EdLUG] Joint LUG event: Lightning talks on Linux audio

[Thomas Kluyver]

Another brief email to see if anyone else might be interested in doing a talk for this. They only need to be 5-10 minutes, which is hardly any time at all when you're talking. So if you know about any aspect of Linux audio - whether that's technical or practical - you can probably tell people about it. :-)

See you all on Wednesday,
Thomas
