This is the only implementation of MIDI in Julia, so I’d think it’s OK to go with MIDI.jl and have it be a nucleus for MIDI-releated development in Julia. I can probably contribute to MIDI device I/O on Linux and OSX, so if you’ve got Windows covered then we’re good to go.
I’ll get a bit more familiar with the API and code and file issues/PRs if I have any suggestions. -s > On Sep 13, 2015, at 6:30 PM, Elliot Saba <staticfl...@gmail.com> wrote: > > If you were to name it MIDI, I would suggest putting it in all caps as > that's how it's usually stylized, and most of our acronym package > names are in all caps.
