Hi all, I just wanted to chime in and say I'm applying to work on mixxx in SOC 2010. I've spent the last handful of days working on first getting trunk built (including installing Arch Linux and using Linux on the desktop for the first time in years as I ran into what seems to be a nasty bug in the win32 version, which I couldn't find in the bug tracker so more on that in the near future), reading everything there is to read on the wiki and getting familar with the code base. I'm a math major and computer science minor at Oklahoma State University in the US (http://www.okstate.edu/) and I've been in love with electronic music since I spent a semester studying in Belgium back in 2006. I'm most interested in the DVS/External mixer mode project and I'll be trying to extract more information about that from the mailing list and IRC in the near future in order to make my application the best it can be.
The silver lining to all the trouble I had with trunk on win32 is that desktop Linux has grown leaps and bounds since I last used it in mid-07 (before I left for university, I didn't bring my desktop with me because of size and at that point power management wasn't great in Linux so I didn't install it on my laptop) and frankly it's been a joy to use the last couple of days. :) Also, I'm bkgood on freenode and I've been trying to idle in #mixxx now that I've seemed to have fixed the wifi problems I was having with Arch.
