Studio DV, Open Octave, And More (Linux Journal)

Dave Phillips gets into video and looks at the Open Octave Project. "Alex Stone and Chris Cherrett share a vision. Both gentlemen compose music for orchestral ensembles, and both prefer to use Linux as their operating system. After assessing the state of Linux audio software Chris and Alex decided to leverage the power of a suite of programs specially selected for their aptness to the purpose of orchestral composition, arrangement, and recording. They've named this endeavor the Open Octave Project."

"Open Octave" seems to suggest that the existing Octave (the numerical computation language) is somehow not open. I guess all the good names are taken already.
