Hello list!

Google Summer of Code (GSoC) is a global program that offers student developers 
stipends to write code for various open source software projects. A 
participating student gets 5000$ for ca. three months of work. [Link 1]

Denemo is participating and we would like to encourage possible students to 
contact us through our mailinglist [see attached link 2] or #denemo on 
irc.freenode.org. 

Our top priority project is the following, but we are also ready for student 
ideas.

"Make midi/audio output realtime-capable

Denemo creates MIDI messages to use them with its internal Fluidsynth-sampler 
or send them out via the Jack Audio Connection Kit. This procedure is not 
realtime-safe yet. Graphical computation and controlling Denemo during playback 
creates playback-glitches. In order to fix this the midi/audio subsystem should 
run in its own realtime-thread and get priority. Needed student skills: 
Programming in C, experience in threads and realtime programming. Useful: 
Knowledge of MIDI and the Jack Audio Connection Kit."

P.S.
If you are not a student feel free do contact us anyway and help Denemo like 
the rest of the team :)
