    I'm sure it's a royal PITA if something goes wrong, but this magic strip or whatever on the Mac they got me for work is slick. I still don't understand why they can't just make the two different sides of the track pad left and right click though...

    We have had a couple of leads fall through, so I’m looking again for someone to take over the #California, #Hawaii, and #Nevada region (known as west) for the CC Community Music Awards. Given #LA and #Vegas, this should be a pretty easy region.

    Please share with anyone you think might be interested. You do not need to live in the region to be the judge for the region. There are still 10+ months in the year, so whoever takes the region is not that far behind.

    For more details, please see https://bdinls576.wordpress.com/2020/01/14/one-post-to-rule-them-all/

      One CC CMA Post to Rule them All
      By daw from Artist Formerly Known as DouglasAWh

      I was asked to write a bit about what it takes to be a Creative Commons Community Music Awards (CC CMA) judge for the 2021 edition of the awards.

      Executive Summary: The judge picks 5 recording artist nominees from their region to be voted upon. As the name implies, the recording artist must license some of their work under a Creative Commons license.

      Details: 

      I. Criteria

      The judges can use whatever criteria s/he wants. Most judges use album release date, as the regions are large, so it is difficult to cover the local scene for an entire region.

      If you have a question, other than how to a find stuff, you are probably over-thinking it. You literally just give me 5 nominees from your region that release under Creative Commons. This is ridiculously simple.

      That said, I have included some questions I have gotten below.

      II. Why?

      There are many layers to why we are doing the awards. Specifically for the regions, it is a way for judges to learn their local scene.

      III. What sites?

      You can use any site. Literally. Any. Site. If you don’t know what a Creative Commons license symbol is, or how to look that up on the Internet, you probably are not going to find being a judge a good experience.

      That said, the real question is, does that site have licensing metadata? Spotify does not give licensing data, but you could listen on Spotify and then verify the license through another source.

      There tons of music sites out there. If you don’t see the CC logos on the site, then it’s probably not a place to find CC music. If you have questions, just ask!

      Bandcamp is my personal favorite.

      Jamendo seems to not be updating (the 2018 year in review is still on the home page), but more than that they do not give city information, which makes it very difficult for US judges. For international judges, Jamendo is an excellent choice.

      YouTube is not going to be a good resource because the license is for the video, not the song. Some musicians will post license details in the details, but YouTube is just not a reliable source.

      III. B. Netlabels

      Netlabels sites are a good resource, particularly if you have a particular aesthetic. There are too many to list. Below are a handful of active ones, in case you find the list at ClongClongMoo confusing.

      Releases

      Catàleg/Catalogue

      blocsonic.com

      http://bonimedia.pl

      IV. How to contact?

      My email is doug@blocsonic.com, but I am easy to find around the Internet. There are not a lot of Doug Whitfield’s in Minneapolis.

      We have a private facebook group. Once you pick a region, I can add you.

      V. Where are previous winners listed?

      http://ccmusicawards.com

      VI. Deadline

      Jan 15, 2021

      VII. What regions are available?

      Central America and Carribean

      Canada

      Africa

      Oceania (aka Australia and company)

      VIII. What genres?

      Any genre. Any language. The only requirement is that the musician be releasing some of their work under a Creative Commons license. Also, see Section I.

      IX. Where do I take notes?

      You can take notes wherever you like. Being a judge is like being king of a region, it’s just your only power is giving us 5 Creative Commons nominees.

      I use a Google Spreadsheet per region.

      X. Where do I submit?

      For now, just send your nominees to Doug, though we should probably have a better process in case Doug rides his bike off a cliff. Yes, Doug is mixing third and first person. I don’t know why.

      TBC…

    @lnxw48a1 I may have told you this, but now it's official...the guy started Monday.

    We hired someone for the CentOS position...not in an office. So, there's hope for that for the Architect position.

    Some time ago, I ran a test that would ask people on facebook, twitter, GNU Social, Diaspora, Twitter, and pump to share, comment, and react to a post as they see fit. The idea was that facebook and twitter were burying posts. I seem to recall that GNU Social won pretty handily at the time.

    I guess now isn't a great time for another test, as I just started my Mastodon account and the linkage between Mastodon and GNU Social is broken, but I think it might be interesting to try again.

    I also need to find the results of that non-scientific study, but that's a project for another day.

    It's pretty demoralizing to never get any responses from anyone but @lnxw48a1, but I am nothing if not persistent.

    I realize I could interact more and gain more followers and I could post more. Maybe I'll give Mastodon a shot a see if I get more interaction there. I don't think I've joined an instance but maybe I have.

    Anyway...

    My team is looking!

    Expert level in a number of open source packages.
    Broad and deep familiarity with multiple projects to include #Java and #J2EE, #JBoss, #ActiveMQ, #Drools, #HornetQ, #Hibernate, #Spring, #Linux (focus primary on #CentOS or #Ubuntu), #Apache #HTTPD, Apache #Tomcat, #MySQL, #PostgreSql, #Opensource project and community participation and Production/24x7 experience.
    Database administration; #postgresql/ #mysql/ #mariadb experience very desirable
    Expertise in #Cassandra, #Kafka, and/or #cloudnative applications is a plus.

    Minimum of five years of software development and design or systems administration or level 3-4 technical support experience.
    Technical knowledge, skills and expertise in complex infrastructure, web-based software and enterprise software
    Understanding of software best practices; #SDLC, #SCM and #Agile development principles.
    Excellent written, verbal, and presentation skills

    Role: Open Source Staff Engineer/Solutions Architect
    Location: #Louisville, #CO or #Minneapolis, #MN

Additionally, based on needs of our customers, you will be involved in presenting training classes (both onsite and remote depending on need of the client); short-term professional service engagements to assist with architect and design solutions; working on internal projects; and enhancing current skills by continuing to learn new open source technologies.

    OpenLogic provides enterprise services for hundreds of open source projects — including #OpenJDK, #Kubernetes, CentOS, and #MariaDB — so you can boost efficiency and savings with free software, while cutting risk.
