[PlanetCCRMA] To the 1/3 programmers 2/3 musicians

[Andrew Wilson]

Mike,

Sorry I don't have time to search for the actual reference however a
similar discussion came up on the Rosegarden mailing list.  There were
some pointers to web sites with music created on Rosegarden, other open
source music.  Some guys are planning on releasing a CD (I think it's
now multiple CDs) of open source created music.

Cheers,
Andrew
